The magnificent manuscripts associated with Charlemagne's circle are among the treasures of medieval book art. In both the works of the "Court school" and the "Group of the Vienna Coronation Gospels," imitated materials play a major role. Ilka Mestemacher is the first to explore the aesthetics, iconography, and technique of painted marble columns and precious stones. Through the focus on materials, she sheds light on the relationship between book illumination and contemporary architecture and goldsmithing. In addition, Mestemacher examines the Christian discourse on the imitation of nature. With its numerous color illustrations, the monograph offers a completely new view of the magnificent Carolingian manuscripts.

Die Prachthandschriften aus dem Umfeld Karls des Großen zählen zu den Schätzen der mittelalterlichen Buchkunst. Sowohl in den Werken der "Hofschule" als auch in der "Gruppe des Wiener Krönungsevangeliars" spielen imitierte Materialien eine große Rolle. Ilka Mestemacher ergründet erstmals die Ästhetik, Ikonographie und Technik der gemalten Marmorsäulen und Edelsteine. Der Fokus auf Materialien ermöglicht zugleich, das Verhältnis der Buchmalerei zu zeitgenössischer Architektur und Goldschmiedekunst zu beleuchten. Darüber hinaus wird der christliche Diskurs um Naturnachahmung thematisiert. Mit ihren zahlreichen Farbabbildungen bietet die Monographie einen völlig neuen Blick auf die karolingischen Prachthandschriften.
