The Florentine Bible, also known as the Borso d'Este Bible, is a masterpiece of Renaissance illumination created by the Florentine artist Gherardo di Giovanni del Fora (1445–1497). This exquisite work, completed in the late 15th century, is renowned for its intricate and vibrant miniatures that adorn the pages of the Latin Vulgate Bible. The Florentine Bible is considered one of the most significant examples of illuminated manuscripts from the Italian Renaissance, reflecting the period's artistic, cultural, and religious fervor.

Gherardo di Giovanni del Fora, a prominent illuminator of his time, was commissioned to produce this lavish Bible by a member of the esteemed Medici family or another wealthy patron of Florence. The manuscript comprises two volumes and is notable for its extensive use of gold leaf, ultramarine, and other expensive pigments, which highlight the opulence and importance of the work. The illustrations within the Florentine Bible depict a range of biblical scenes, from the Creation to the Last Judgment, and are characterized by their detailed landscapes, architectural elements, and expressive figures, all of which showcase Gherardo's skill and creativity.

The Florentine Bible is not only a religious text but also an artifact that provides insight into the artistic techniques and materials used during the Renaissance. It serves as a testament to the era's devotion to both the divine and the pursuit of beauty. Today, the manuscript is held in high regard by art historians and bibliophiles alike and is preserved in a prominent public or private collection, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical and artistic significance.
