Our final medieval cicada is remarkable for actually looking like a cicada even to the fine hairs on the legs. It is from an early manuscript of 'L'Acerba etas' by Cecco d'Ascoli (1257-1327). #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #cicada #cicadas

A detailed drawing of a cicada seen from the top on an age-spotted manuscript page. Except for the fact that two of the insect's six legs are sprouting from the insect's head, it is surprisingly accurate. The six jointed legs have fine hairs. The head and thorax are clearly differentiated and the head has round side eyes and two antennae. It has veined wings folded over its thorax. It is drawn in shades of brown and soft red. Image from Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, Plut.40.52 (L'Acerba etas), folio 38r.

Many medieval cicadas are only vaguely insect-like. This odd little beastie is from a 13th century French version of "Liber de natura rerum". It seems to have the prickles on its underside with which it was thought to absorb its food. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #cicada #cicadas

In a dark rectangular frame on a gilt background, a black insect with white spots along its spine and thin hair-like fronds on its underside appears to be hovering/swimming with four flat double-wings/fins extending from its sides. It has a sharply pointed rear and a blunted front with a very cross expression. It looks like a worm with wings/fins. Image from Bibliothèque Municipale de Valenciennes, MS 320 (Liber de natura rerum), folio 144r.

This little green cicada is from a c1300-1325 version of "Der Naturen Bloeme" by Jacob van Maerlant (c1200-c1272). It seems to have a mouth which may explain its anxious expression as medieval cicadas were said to lack mouths . #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #cicada #cicadas

Looking to the right and sandwiched between sepia-coloured text, a worried-looking green bodied insect appears to be hovering. It has upraised dull green wings and a segmented pointed body. It appears to have four very substantial legs, although it may in fact be eight very thin legs. It also seems to have a strand of greenish hair (perhaps an antenna?) trailing down its face by its eye. It has a blunt nose with a line that looks like a mouth. Image from British Library, Additional MS 11390 (Der Naturen Bloeme), folio 70r.

Our medieval beast this week is the cicada which was thought to be born from a cuckoo's saliva. This image of five cicadas is from a 1447 French translation of "De proprietatibus rerum" by Bartholomeus Anglicus (1203-1272). #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #cicada #cicadas

Within a square gilt frame, on a red background sprigged with thin gold branches, five bug-eyed insects are in formation (three above, two below). The insects have veined gauzy white wings folded on their backs and brown striped dark yellow bodies with pointed rears. Their heads are obscured by enormous dark brown round eyes. Image from Bibliothèque d’Amiens Métropole (Bibliothèque Louis Aragon), Ms. 399 (Livre des propriétés des choses), folio 144r.

Our last griffin for the week is something of a rarity in that it has the front legs and paws of a lion. The 13th century text names it is a "vespulione" (a wasp-lion) and says it is an ignoble creature which seems somewhat harsh. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #griffin #griffins

A daintily stepping griffin stepping towards the left with a block of text on the right. It has the body, tail, legs and paws of a lion in a light fawn colour with the blue neck and head of an eagle. Its eagle-style wings are the same colour as the body. It has long blue ears and a pale grey curved beak. It has long claws and looks fierce. Its tufted tail is in an S-shaped curl above its back. Image from Bibliothèque Nationale de France, lat. 6838B, folio 26v.

This griffin is from a Suffolk (English) bestiary dated to around 1500. It shows an alternate spelling of "griffon" and adds ears to the beast as well as a chin-beard. I particularly love the size of its front feet. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #griffin #griffins

A seated griffin with the brown haunches and body of a lion and the cream-coloured heavily feathered head, neck, legs and wings of an eagle. The front bird feet are huge with long blue claws. The back lion paws also have blue claws. Its long thin tail is curled over its back haunches and the tuft disappears out of the picture on the left. The eagle head has very long thin ears as well as a long curly chin-beard with a red band at its top. The curved beak is open and the beast has a very round eye looking out at the viewer. The word "griffon" appears above it. Image from Yale Center for British Art, Folio C 2014 4 (Helmingham Herbal and Bestiary), folio 18r.

Griffins were considered the enemies of horses and were also thought able to carry away an entire ox as well as tear a man to pieces. This particular griffin is from the 15th century Augsberg Bestiary. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #griffin #griffins

A griffin with the golden hindquarters, tail and body of a lion and the grey head, neck and wings as well as the yellow legs and feet of an eagle clutching a fawn-coloured horse wearing a red bridle in its front claws. The horse is looking back at the griffin with its neck twisted backwards in an anatomically impossible position. The griffin is hovering in the middle of the picture and is possibly meant to be flying (although its wings are furled) and the horse appears to have curled its legs under its body and is hovering just above the grassy/flowery meadow on which it has been caught. The griffin is looking upwards and its beak is more like a budgie's than a bird of prey. Image from Universitätsbibliothek Augsburg, Cod.II.1.2° 109 (Augsberg Bestiary / De bestiis et aliis rebus),

This delightfully grumpy-looking griffin is from the Isabella Psalter, dated to 1303-1308. #medievalmanuscripts #medievalbeasts #beasts #griffin #griffins
