Illuminated Ottonian Manuscripts 950-1050AD

...
Viking Age Compendium catalogues of Manuscripts & Art:

This article is primarily based on the work of:

Mayr-Harting, Henry (1999) Ottonian Book Illumination, an historical study.

^{(MAYR-HARTING 1999)}

The artistic successor to the Carolingian Renascence, the German, Swiss and Italian Ottonian manuscripts provide some of the best depictions of people and fashions in this period. Henry Mayr-Harting's ^{(MAYR-HARTING 1999)} two volume study draws on 70 Ottonian manuscripts and is the basis for this list although the numbering system is our own.

The only other book in English that I know of that discuss Ottonian art is Dodwell's 'The Pictorial Arts of the West 800-1200' ^{(DODWELL 1993)}.
