The Pepper Bible

These are pages from The Pepper Gospels  Copyright James G. Pepper 2005. 
Some of these pages were placed on display at the Biblical Arts Museum in Dallas Texas in March and April of 2005.  Each chapter is written in a distinct calligraphic style.  this is just a sample of what is found in My Gospels.  The gospels contain 310 illuminated pages, 550 pages in all and most of the remaining pages are decorated.  Each chapter is unique and they follow the general theme of each Gospel, Luke is a Celtic manuscript, while John is made up of French Styles.  Matthew is mainly English and Northern European while Mark spans the entire history of Bible manuscript illumination from early papyri to today. So when you look at these pages try to imagine the entire chapter written in these forms.
