| Summary: | This paper explores the intricate connections between manuscript illumination in the late 10th and early 11th centuries, focusing on the Benedictine monastery on Reichenau Island and the ‘Master of the Registrum Gregorii’ from Trier. It highlights key works like the Codex Egberti and the Egbert Psalter, examining the collaborative efforts between the Trier and Reichenau scriptoria under Archbishop Egbert of Trier’s patronage.
