Book Of Durrow Lion - Public domain dedication image
Summary
Français : L'aigle attribué à Marc et le lion à Jean, conformément à l'ordre d'Irénée de Lyon.English: The Book of Durrow is unusual in that it does not use the traditional scheme, usual since Saint Jerome, for assigning the symbols to the Evangelists. Each Gospel begins with an Evangelist's symbol – a man for Matthew, an eagle for Mark (not the lion traditionally used), a calf for Luke and a lion for John (not the eagle traditionally used). This is also known as the pre-Vulgate arrangement.Русский: Лев, как символ евангелиста Иоанна (а не Марка). Книга Дарроу необычна тем, что не использует традиционную схему, обычную со времен Святого Иеронима, для обозначения символов евангелистов.
