While preparing to digitise this manuscript from Gladbach Abbey, preserved by the #Bollandists (MS 72, 2nd q. of the 12th c.), I came across a beautiful, almost invisible horse 🐎, drawn with a drypoint pen.
I love this job 🙂

A few pictures of the Vlaamse Werkgroep Mediëvistiek's visit to the #Bollandists' Library in #Brussels, a sanctuary for hagiographical studies 😇
