Vatican Terence
Princely Abbey of Corvey or Aachen (Germany) or Corbie Abbey (France) β Ca. 825
Fascinating insights into the late antique theatre tradition in a Carolingian manuscript: all six comedies by Terence in 150 expressive, vibrant illuminations from the court of Louis the Pious
This Carolingian manuscript contains all six comedies by Publius Terentius Afer (around 195 β around 159 BC)
It was probably made after a model from late antiquity and gives us an insight into the theatre tradition of that time
The codex is famous for a remarkable author portrait and 5 illuminated βmask cabinetsβ
