20. Gks. 1154,1983, op. cit. bls. 22: „When added together the Icelandic fea-
tures in 1154 I are of such significance that there must have been an Ice-
landic scribe at work in one stage in the process of transmission."

24. Gks. 1154, 1983, op. cit., bls. 13: „In only one Nordic area, Iceland, has
a relatively rich collection of illuminated manuscripts been preserved.
Most of them, however, are later than Hardenberg’s Codex and of such
modest quality that they do not provide a suitable basis for comparison.
One Icelandic manuscript nevertheless shows close similarities to Har-
denberg’s Codex in the style both of its figures and of its initials, and that
is the Stjórn manuscript, AM 227 fol., from the first half of the 14th cen-
tury (Hermansson 1935 pls. I. and 16-21). It is probably somewhat later
than Hardenberg’s Codex and not of the same quality. Although it shows
a somewhat coarse and simplified version of the style, the whole decora-
tive system of the manuscript is in a style which must have originated in
the same artistic environment as that in which Hardenberg’s Codex was
created. A certain connection can also be seen with the Svalbarðsbók
mentioned above, AM 343 fol (ibid., pls. 8 a-e, 53, and 54), in which
some of the illustrations also relate iconographically with Hardenberg’s
Codex. These Icelandic manuscripts undoubtedly have Norwegian mo-
dels and show that in its styie, Hardenberg’s Codex can be regarded as
representative of a Norwegian manuscript school."
Tilvitnun í grein Bergs er höfð þetta ýtarleg því að þar kemur fram afstaða
norskra fræðimanna til íslenskrar miðaldalistar, en hún hefur ætíð ein-
kennst af því, að aðeins sé hægt að líta á hana sem lélega eftirlíkingu af því
sem tapast hefur í norskri myndlist.
