Volume of The Journal of the Walters Art Museum, dedicated to Dr Gary Vikan, a scholar of Byzantine art, curator of medieval art and for a period of ten years director of the Walters Art Museum. The centrepiece of this book is a catalogue of the twenty Greek manuscripts in the collection of the museum, all but one of which were acquired by Henry Walters between 1895 and 1935.
