One of the museum's prized possessions is the Triptych of the Virgin Mary, a stunning piece painted with tempera on panel.

This masterpiece transports us back in time to witness the celebration of Pentecost, as believers are filled with the Holy Spirit. Moving along, our eyes are drawn to The miraculous catch depicted in a miniature within the Sacred Bible. This scene captures Jesus' disciples hauling in an abundance of fish under his divine guidance—a testament to his power and miracles. As we delve deeper into history, we encounter Gothic Painting at its finest—St. Augustine takes center stage in a central panel altarpiece dedicated to him. The intricate details showcase not only artistic skill but also reverence for this influential saint. The Tree of Jesse beckons us closer—a mesmerizing miniature found within Biblia Sacra volume IV. It traces Jesus' lineage back to King David—an awe-inspiring reminder that he is indeed "the root and offspring" prophesied by Isaiah. A moment frozen in time unfolds before our eyes—the Nativity captured beautifully as an illuminated capital letter within the Episcopal Sacramentary of Elna manuscript. We can almost hear angels singing praises while shepherds kneel before baby Jesus. Continuing our journey through sacred artistry, The Three Marys at the Tomb captivates us with its exquisite illumination from yet another page in the Episcopal Sacramentary of Elna manuscript. Here lies hope amidst grief as these faithful women discover Christ's resurrection.
