This illustrated manuscript, "The Malermi Bible," is a second volume of a devotional text created in 1490 by the Italian artist Niccolò Malèrmi. It is known for its vibrant miniature illustrations, such as the scene depicting the prophet Jonah being swallowed by a whale and Jonah being cast into the sea. This page also features illuminated capital letters that are characteristic of 15th-century Italian manuscript traditions. It is currently located at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
