Answer:

Book of Durrow

Step-by-step explanation:

Book of Durrow represents Gospel icons - a highly decorative depiction of an Evangelist (Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John) typically appears before the gospel attributed to his name.

It also represents:

Incipit page - serves as a title page and includes the opening words of a text along with elaborate illustrations.

Initial - an enlarged and elaborately decorated letter that marks the start of an important section of a text (whether a chapter, paragraph, or verse). Although illuminated manuscripts existed prior to the Irish Golden Age, Irish Christian scribes gave them a new twist by incorporating the interlacing bands of insular art, as was the case with the Book of Durrow.
