Analyses the iconography of Moses in the famous illuminated eleventh-century manuscript known as the Illustrated Old English Hexateuch. Herbert Broderick argues that the visual construct of Moses in the Old English Hexateuch may have been based on a Late Antique, no longer extant, prototype influenced by works of Hellenistic Egyptian Jewish exegetes.
