StabiLiebling: Der Münchener Boccaccio

In the organizer's words:

StabiLiebling. A top piece. Two days. Very close.

THE MUNICH BOCCACCIO

Under the motto "StabiLiebling", the Bavarian State Library opens its vaults and presents a top item from its collections in its treasure chamber for two days every month.

The most famous French manuscript in the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek's collection captivates with 91 magnificent miniatures by Jean Fouquet and his workshop. The codex, created in 1458, contains Giovanni Boccaccio's work "De casibus virorum illustrium" in a French version. The author's and dedication image is on leaf 10v. (BSB shelfmark Cod.gall. 6)

Let yourself be inspired by centuries-old cultural treasures in the original - behind glass, but still very close: a special art experience and interesting facts about the "StabiLiebling" await you.

Free introductory lectures on both days at 11 a.m., 1 p.m. and 5 p.m. (no registration required, meeting point Fürstensaal 1st floor)
