ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
MARYLAND---The just opened exhibition, "Living by the Book: Monks, Nuns and Their Manuscripts" at Walters Art Museum includes approximately 20 books. Through these treasured books, visitors will explore the medieval monastic Christian communities. Unlike today, when the works are viewed as untouchable works of art, during the medieval period they were created, used, cherished, glossed, worn down and palimpsested by those who lived there over the centuries.
