With its many miniatures and with its bright, varied palette and its lavish use of polished gold, the Trinity College Apocalypse is one of the most magnificent 13th-century English apocalypse manuscript. The illuminations were painted by four different miniaturists whose repertoire betrays strong influences from monumental painting.
