The Museum Schnütgen invites you to rediscover the Psalter-Breviary from Laon with the exhibition "Faith with Humor." This extraordinary prayer book from the 14th century fascinatingly combines seriousness with humorous elements. The manuscript's artistic margins are populated by fantastic creatures and hybrids, enriching solemn texts with playful allusions. These unique illustrations offer not only aesthetic enjoyment but also a deep insight into the cultural life of the Middle Ages.
