This investigation ultimately identifies how the physical appearance of the manuscript relates to both the historical record and principles of visual cognition, consequently commenting on the Insular artist’s keen awareness of perceptual processes as well as humankind’s reliance on creating and experiencing formalized aesthetic systems. This analysis presents MS Lich 1 as an adaptable and dynamic object that has remained functional and relevant for over twelve-hundred years, exploring its formal qualities in terms of both spiritual significance and practical utility. Despite this, scholarship in response to this particular gospel book is sparse and effectively overshadowed by its more famous contemporaries, such as the Lindisfarne Gospels and the Book of Kells.
