Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The description of the illumination indicates that multiple events are being shown in a single image, which suggests the use of continuous narrative. Iconic imagery refers to a style of representing figures in a highly stylized or symbolic fashion, and there is no indication that this is the case in the illumination. Iconoclasm refers to the destruction of icons or images, which is not relevant to the question. Prefiguration refers to the use of events in the Old Testament to foreshadow events in the New Testament, which is also not directly relevant to the question.
