The more we studied them, the more we noticed the strange and often hilarious little creatures monks had drawn into the margins of these intricate, beautiful books. We first imagined solitary monks sneaking a sip of wine and slipping in these drawings as playful liberties—testing what they could get away with. Later we learned this wasn’t just whimsy but an actual tradition known as marginalia: doodles, scribbles, and annotations scattered through the edges of manuscripts. Sometimes they appeared for no clear reason at all, other times because paper was scarce. Using marginalia as a jumping-off point, we imagined a museum that collects relics of medieval saints and oddities. It felt personal to give this museum the slogan “Illuminated Relics of Helmstedt,” named for the German town where Melissa’s mother grew up and where her grandmother still lives—a town with medieval roots, making the connection all the more fitting. The drawings in this group reflect both the meticulous detail of medieval penmanship and the irreverent spirit of marginalia: silly demons darting about, angels in flight, and references to the medieval zodiac, once used to guide when medical procedures could or could not be performed during certain periods of the year.
