By Women's Hands - Exhibition
Medieval manuscripts are beautiful things, and they are and always were precious things. We cannot be entirely sure about how many people back in the Middle Ages were able to read, or write, or both - but we do know that at least some women were able to do so, and there's manuscripts written by women's hands.
The Schnütgen Museum in Cologne currently runs an exhibition about such manuscripts. It is titled "By Women's Hands" and will run until end of January 2022. If you're in the area, the museum is very much worth a visit anyways.
