The Serbian Psalter is one of the most precious manuscripts from medieval Serbia. It was most probably produced around 1400 for the princes of Brankovic and came to Munich in 1689 as a part of the booty from the wars against the Turks. The 148 miniatures of this manuscript are the most important representatives of Serbian book illustration.
English description: The Serbian Psalter is one of the most precious manuscripts from medieval Serbia.

The 148 miniatures of this manuscript are the most important representatives of Serbian book illustration. German description: Der “Serbische Psalter” ist die kostbarste Bilderhandschrift aus dem mittelalterlichen Serbien. Er entstand offenbar im Auftrag der Fursten Brankovic um 1400 und kam 1689 als Beute der Sieger in den Turkenkriegen nach Bayern. Der Codex ist auf Papier geschrieben und bietet eine eigentumliche Textzusammenstellung fur den ausserliturgischen Gebrauch. Seine 148, oft ganzseitigen Miniaturen sind das wichtigste Zeugnis der Buchmalerei Serbiens. Sie erschliessen verlorene byzantinische Vorbilder aus der Palaologenzeit, die sie um slawische Bildeinschube und Bildkommentare des Textes bereichern. Zusammen mit dem bulgarischen Tomic-Psalter in Moskau spiegelt der Serbische Psalter eine alte Tradition der Psalmen-Illustration, die nur in diesen beiden Handschriften fassbar wird.
