The Venerable Bede was a monk, theologian and historian who lived at Jarrow in Northumbria in the late 7th and early 8th centuries. I drew him in the style of Northumbro-Irish illuminated manuscripts. Some of the greatest of these were made about the time and place that St. Bede lived; he knew personally St. Eadfrith, the scribe of the Lindisfarne Gospels.
