Henry Yates Thompson (1838-1928) was a British collector and philanthropist who assembled this remarkable collection over his lifetime. The collection is now housed at the British Library in London.
Henry Yates Thompson was born into a wealthy family in 1838. Thompson began collecting manuscripts and other items in the 1870s. His collection quickly gained recognition for its exceptional quality and breadth. He had a keen eye for illuminated manuscripts, which are manuscripts decorated with intricate illustrations and calligraphy. The collection has a particular emphasis on medieval manuscripts.
In mittelalterlichen illuminierten Manuskripten sind Bas-de-Page-Szenen ungerahmte, manchmal skurrile Bilder, die unter dem geschriebenen Text erscheinen und sich darauf beziehen können oder auch nicht.
