What are medieval pocket monsters, and how can the Getty help me catch them all?
Books of Hours were the medieval best-seller, and most could fit in your pocket. Many of these awesome manuscripts featured wondrous marginalia filled with monsters. And there you have it, Medieval Pocket Monsters. Their variety was so great, that we haven’t even caught them all! But here are some fun ones (from a single book) for you to explore (and the book is actually on view in our North Pavilion gallery)!

AMY: What is it, a minotaur? Or an alien? Or an alien minotaur? That’s not a question I thought I’d be asking this morning. ELEVENTH DOCTOR: It’s both, actually. Yeah. Here we go. Distant cousin of the Nimon. They descend on planets and set themselves up as gods to be worshipped.
