A richly detailed medieval illuminated manuscript Adelard of Bath engrossed in a large, open book, his finger pointing to an illustration of a woman within a circular frame. He wears a red and white striped cap, a green cloak, and engaged in reading or writing. He was recorded in mediaeval times as dressing this way. In this view he is in a scholarly library such as may have been in a monastery of that period.
