Initial D with St. John the Baptist
0 references
This initial begins the Introit for the feast of St. John the Baptist (June 24), 'De ventre matris meae uocauit me dominus nomine meo ...' (When I was still lying in my mother's womb the Lord sent his summons to me by name). Much of the initial has been restored by a nineteenth-century hand, but the style recalls the work of Sienese illumination of the fifteenth century.

This initial has been retouched.
