Paris Psalter
Tenth-century illuminated manuscript / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the third copy of the Utrecht Psalter, produced in England in the late 12th century, see Great Canterbury Psalter.
The Paris Psalter (Paris, Bibliothèque Nationale, MS. gr. 139) is a Byzantine illuminated manuscript, 38 x 26.5 cm in size, containing 449 folios and 14 full-page miniatures. The Paris Psalter is considered a key monument of the so-called Macedonian Renaissance, a 10th-century renewal of interest in classical art closely identified with the emperor Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus (909-959) and his immediate successors.
