By the way, is it known whether the original MS was illuminated? The pictures in the Angelica look so Byzantine. I'm not sure if this was still normal around 1250.
I would have to double-check but I don't think the original was illuminated. A little less than half of the ones that were known a few decades ago were illuminated. I think at least a couple more are known now, but I can't remember if the more recent aquisitions or finds are illuminated.
