Commentary (German) by Hoffmann, Wilhelm; Bischoff, Bernhard; Mütherich, Florentine; Eschweiler, Jakob; Frede, Hermann Josef
The Stuttgart Psalter is one of the most important surviving Carolingian manuscripts due to its extensive biblical pictorial cycle comprising over three hundred individually illustrated scenes. Each psalm begins with an ornamented initial, the style of which suggests an origin at Saint-Germain-des-Prés ca. 820–830. Few of its pages are without elaborate, colorful miniatures that are filled with figures, who are theatrically expressive in their gestures.
