Heilsspiegel (mirror of salvation), so is the group of prevalent Middle Age picture bibles known, who with their systematic compilation of events from the New and Old Testament, contain the most extensive and comprehensive look at Christian salvific history. Kept in Kremsmünster, this codex is not only the oldest bilingual work, but also with its almost 200 coloured pen drawings, it is the most important representation artistically of this type of remarkable manuscript.
