    Annotation"Illuminated manuscript of the four gospels in Latin. Probably begun in the late 8th century at the Irish monastery of Iona, which later migrated to Kells, County Meath, Ireland, its intricate illumination and superb penmanship have earned it the epithet of ‘the most beautiful book in the world’. After its collation in 1621 by James Usher, it was presented to Trinity College, Dublin, where it has remained."--World encyclopedia
