- Title
A Jew among Us: The Catalan Micrography Maḥzor Artist and the Ferrer Bassa Atelier.
- Authors
Halperin, Dalia-Ruth
- Abstract
The article examines the Catalan Micrography Mahzor, a Jewish prayer book, adorned with microscopic drawings at Catalonia, Spain to determine whether the painting was done at the Atelier of Spanish painter Ferrer Bassa during the early 13th century. The article suggests that both the manuscript and the micrography were written between 1325 and 1354. It is analyzed that the same artist served as both masorator and scribe.
