The Speculum Sancte Mariae Virginis is intercalated between the
chapters of the Speculum humanae salvationia; the latter
is accompanied by a German Translation + followed by a
Latin summary by Johannes, monk at St. Ulrich +
Afra.
- a frequently consulted source of inspiration for artists in the
late 14 + 15th C, the Speculum + its illustrations remain
today a key guide to our understanding of the often
obscure symbolism of the art of this period.
