Title: ILLUMINATA - The Bovine Bibliophile Location: John Rylands University Library - Oxford Road Artist: Helen Johnson Sponsor: Friends of John Rylands University Library One of the greatest treasures the city possesses is the collection of manuscripts and printed material in the care of John Rylands University Library: amongst the gems is the oldest fragment of the New Testament, a first edition of Shakepeare's Sonnets and a jaw-dropping collection of medieval illuminated manuscripts. Saturated in colour, the Bovine Bibliophile is the first illuminated cow in the world. It's time to turn up the volume.				Send a Postcard
