The Antiphonary (Cod. B, folio 148) by Bartolomeo Di Fruosino is a notable example of early 15th-century illuminated manuscript art. Bartolomeo di Fruosino, an Italian painter and illuminator active during the late 14th and early 15th centuries, is renowned for his contributions to religious manuscripts, which were integral to the liturgical practices of the time. The antiphonary, a type of liturgical book containing antiphons, or chanted responses, used in the Divine Office, showcases the intricate artistry and devotional fervor characteristic of Fruosino's work.

This particular folio, numbered 148, is part of a larger codex that was likely commissioned by a religious institution for use in communal worship. The manuscript is distinguished by its elaborate decorations, including historiated initials, marginalia, and vibrant use of color, which reflect the Gothic style prevalent in Italy during Fruosino's lifetime. The folio's illuminations not only serve a decorative purpose but also enhance the spiritual experience of the reader, guiding them through the liturgical calendar with visual cues and theological symbolism.

Bartolomeo di Fruosino's work on the antiphonary exemplifies his skill in blending artistic innovation with traditional iconography. His attention to detail and ability to convey narrative through miniature scenes within the initials are hallmarks of his style. The folio's preservation allows modern audiences to appreciate the craftsmanship and religious devotion that went into its creation.

The Antiphonary (Cod. B, folio 148) remains an important artifact for the study of medieval manuscript illumination, offering insights into the religious, cultural, and artistic milieu of early 15th-century Italy. It stands as a testament to Bartolomeo di Fruosino's legacy as a master illuminator and his contribution to the rich tradition of ecclesiastical art.
