Best viewed large.
Located on the second floor at the Royal Monastery of San Lorenzo de El Escorial it is considered one of the best renaissance libraries in the world.
The library has an extremely rich collection (about 45.000 docs),
which
includes Arab and Hebrew manuscripts, and the personal library
of Felipe II. Alfonso X’s Cantigas de Santa María, the Book of
Hours of the Catholic monarchs, Santa Teresa’s manuscripts and
diary, the gold-scrolled Aureus Codex (1039), and an 11th
century Commentary on the Apocalypse by Beato de Liébana are
just a few of the manuscripts.
Se ve mejor en grande.
