The Stammheim Missal<\/em> leaves one speechless from respect and astonishment. A true culmination of the Romanesque from the final third of the twelfth century. Flawlessly beautiful, pure and clear, perfect in its artistic execution. It features depictions of a high quality found in no other manuscript. In addition to scenes from the Old Testament, they illustrate the major events from the life of Jesus and the festivals of the saints especially honoured in the liturgy. Its calendar is unusual and unique, with its framing architectural and depictions of the hours of the day and night in a gold-bordered disk. In short, a manuscript of superlatives, which after 850 years still radiates as brightly as did at the time it was created.<\/p>\n

The Romanesque Art Perfected<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

The Stammheim Missal<\/em> was produced around 1170 in St Michael’s Benedictine monastery at Hildesheim. On the highest artistic and theological level, it represents Romanesque manuscript illumination in its purest form. The perfectly executed miniatures are breathtakingly beautiful. The impression of colour they convey recalls the masterpieces of enamel art from this period. The generous gold grounds; the geometric ornamental frames, which permit a number of image fields in a deliberately cruciform arrangement; and the symmetrical pictorial structure lend majesty to the miniatures. The rigor is lightened by the postures, gestures, and gazes of the figures, which seem alive and dynamic as a result.<\/p>\n

Manuscript for Canonization<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

The Stammheim Missal<\/em> is a missal in the sense that it contains all the vocal music, prayers and scripture readings used over the course of the church year to celebrate the mass at St Michael’s. Nevertheless, it has its own structure that is clearly not intended for liturgical use but should rather be understood as a kind of shrine, in which the elements of the liturgy of the mass are recorded and adorned in the most splendid possible way. The Stammheim Missal<\/em> was primarily created in memory of Bishop Bernward of Hildesheim (died 1022), the founder of the monastery, and served to support the process of his canonization in 1193. Accordingly, the veneration of Bernward plays a prominent role in the manuscript.<\/p>\n

As if Fresh from the Scriptorium<\/em><\/span><\/h3>\n

The Stammheim Missal<\/em> seems flawless. Gold and colours radiate on the bright parchment with incomparable freshness and purity. Eight and a half centuries have left behind almost no traces of aging. Its three owners have preserved the manuscript with great care and respect over the course of history. From the twelfth century until 1803, the monks of St Michael’s guarded this treasure of a book. In the wake of secularization, the last Prince-Bishop of Hildesheim, Franz Egon, Baron of F\u00fcrstenberg, took charge of it. Until the twentieth century, the missal remained in Stammheim Castle in Cologne, which belonged to his family. Finally, in 1997 it was purchased by the J. Paul Getty Museum through the mediation of the antiquarian \u2192\u00a0Dr. J\u00f6rn G\u00fcnther<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n

The Stammheim Missal<\/em> is fascinating not only for the perfection of its miniatures, above all terms of their symmetry, colour and form in the spirit of Romanesque art, but also for a number of elaborately decorated initials. The larger initials, at a height of five to eighteen lines, can be divided into historiated, inhabited and decorated initials. The historiated initials contain figural scenes related to a text. The inhabited ones, by contrast, feature people, animals and mythical beasts that quite specifically use the volume of the letter as a support surface, or the life. The motifs of the ornamented initials are purely decorative and get by without any figural elements. The simplest of them are geometrical designs.<\/p>\n

The largest inhabited initial in the Stammheim Missal<\/em> is on fol. 58r. It opens the choral music for the Feast of St Michael, the patron saint of the monastery. In the vines decorating the interior fields of the letter B, which emerges from the mouth of a dragon, one discovers various figures working on harvesting grapes and producing wine. At the very top one sees a man harvesting a grape with a sickle. In the bottom bulge of the B, a man is picking a grape by hand. In the center, two others threaten\u2014with a bow and arrow and a club, respectively\u2014animals and birds that are nibbling at the grapes. At bottom right, finally, a man with a long-handled spoon appears, which he is dipping into a vat full of grapes.<\/p>\n

The Brilliance of Precious Metals<\/em><\/span><\/h4>\n

The Stammheim Missal<\/em> is splendidly decorated with gold and silver. These metals radiate their noble brilliance on nearly every page. It is particularly remarkable that even over the course of eight and a half centuries few of the silver areas have oxidized and hence turned darker. Glittering gold and gleaming silver are often directly side by side or transition into each other. Reproducing that exactly in the facsimile represents a great challenge for the experts. The transitions and variations must be exactly right at every small place. This makes not only comparing the proofs to the original indispensable but also a trained eye.<\/p>\n

The Secret of the Front Cover<\/em><\/span><\/h4>\n

The Stammheim Missal<\/em> conceals a secret in its front cover. When it is opened, an indentation of ca. 8 mm is visible. Until 1904, it held two ivory tablets, probably dating from the tenth century, which were perhaps part of the original binding of the manuscript. The diptych was then acquired by the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin, where at the end of the Second World War it burned up, apart from tiny remnants.
\nIn close cooperation with the J. Paul Getty Museum, the publishing house and the bookbinder, a solution was worked out to fill this indentation for the facsimile edition by introducing a small, secret compartment into it.<\/p>\n

The handbound folder for the Stammheim Missal<\/em> contains four original pages from the facsimile as a double-page spread. On fol. 117r, it shows a large inhabited D initial with animals, mythical beasts and figures among the vines; on fol. 117v, a full-page miniature for the Pentecost; and, finally, on fols. 118r-v, two text pages with sixteen smaller initials in gold and colour. These examples give you an impression of the high artistic quality of the manuscript.
\nThe associated documentation volume includes a sixteen-page introduction to the manuscript, the period of its origin and the flowering of Romanesque art in Hildesheim. In addition, the various steps of producing the facsimile are explained, which for the Stammheim Missal<\/em> as well demanded great knowledge, experience and an eagerness to experiment.<\/p>\n
