Detail of Satan Afflicting Job with Sore Boils

From an illuminated manuscript, ca. 12th century.

This drawing captures a winged, chained demon breathing pestilence onto righteous Job, who sits patiently on an ash heap, his entire body covered in symmetric red pustules representing severe boils. Above them, a roundel depicts Prophet Elijah (helIas).

Location: University of Glasgow Library, Archives & Special Collections.
