The St. Albans Psalter (c. 1125-1135), is
generally regarded as the earliest surviving
masterpiece of Anglo-Norman painting. Its
extensive picture cycle includes over 200
historiated initials accompanying the psalms and
prayers. The original Psalter is kept at the
Church of St Godehard in Hildesheim. A copy of
an ancient religious book, created in St Albans
almost a thousand years ago, has been given to
the Si.Albans city's cathedral. Alexis Master

Simon Marmion (1420-1489) was a French or
Burgundian Early Netherlandish painter of panels
and illuminated manuscripts. Marmion lived and
worked in what is now France but for most of his
lifetime was part of the Duchy of Burgundy in the
Southern Netherlands. He was patronized by Philip
the Good, the Duke of Burgundy from 1454 when he
was one of several artists called to Lille to
work on the decorations for the Feast of the
Pheasant.

"the prince of illuminators" by a near
contemporary. Three years after his death his
widow, Jeanne de Quaroube, married his pupil, the
painter Jan Provoost, who on her death inherited
the considerable Marmion estate.
