Notes: Commentary on and facsimile of the Gulbenkian Apocalypse, probably copied and illuminated in London between 1265 and 1270. The codex probably belonged to Pope Clement IX (1667-1669). In the latter half of the 19th century, it belonged to Cesare Battaglini de Rimini whose wife was a descendant of Clement IX. It then belonged to Henry Yates Thomson from 1899 to 1920, when it was bought by Calouste Gulbenkian. It is currently part of the Gulbenkian Foundation Museum (MS Ls.LA. 139) collection in Lisbon.
