The Tabula of Cebes in the British Library is an illuminated manuscript copy of a description of an imagined allegorical painting charting the progress to a virtuous life. The author of the Latin hexameter text, the Mantuan humanist Filippo Alberici, was the manuscript’s scribe, and Jean Coene IV provided six full-page miniatures, densely populated by personifications of vices, virtues, and other abstract concepts.
