John Gillis and Anthony Read, The Faddan More Psalter: A progress update, ICON News, 11, 2007

Abstract

The Faddan More Psalter is an Eighth Century illuminated vellum manuscript, in its original limp, tanned leather cover that was found in a bog in Co Tipperary, Ireland in July 2006. The find has stirred up a great deal of interest, both in the book itself and in the genuinely unique conservation problems that it presents. It is the intention of this report to outline the approach that has been taken to date and to summarise the work that is currently being undertaken.
