The Saint John’s Bible is the first illuminated, handwritten Bible of monumental size to be commissioned by a Benedictine monastery in more than 500 years. An extension of the original work, the Heritage Edition is the only full-size, limited, signed and numbered fine-art edition that will ever be produced. In all, only 299 fine art editions have been created and placed in religious, arts, academic, healing and literary institutions around the world. Bound in Italian leather and printed on 100 percent cotton paper, the Heritage Edition features the exquisite calligraphy, vibrant imagery and stunning gold and silver illuminations inspired by the original.
St. Norbert College is blessed to house one of these works in its entirety of seven volumes. We welcome you to visit and take a look!
