Description
Medieval Bible
I reenact a 13th century Templar. I took a Douay Rheims bible as it is an english version of the latin vulgate. I put a wood and leather cover on it.
I carved the mold for the metal fittings out of soapstone and then cast the fittings out of pewter.
The Icon
I wrote the icon using handmade paints of egg and powdered colors and brought it up in layers over many days in a very labor intensive but period method.
As the Mandylion was so important to the Templars I felt it would be perfect for my personas bible in the SCA.
