‘Medieval Mindscapes’ exhibition on view at the Walters Art Museum through Aug. 23
The Walters Art Museum has unveiled "Medieval Mindscapes," a new exhibition featuring 22 rare illustrated prayer books from the Middle Ages. Curated from the museum’s extensive permanent collection, the show focuses on "books of hours"—portable, highly personalized manuscripts that served as intimate tools for Christian devotion in medieval Europe. Highlights include 15th-century Belgian manuscripts featuring intricate visual illusions, gold parchment, and personifications of death.
