I was wondering if anyone knew where to find any copy of the Wenceslaus Bible, paper or electronic. A Bohemian bible of the late 14th century, it forms a substantial part of the images Wagner based his book on and I have only been able to find small excerpts from it. We are particularly looking for 1390's women's fashion information.

Oh oh...

I'm, searching the Wenceslas Bible too.
The only copy I found was a really expensive Facsimile (more than $ 20.000) .

Johannes,
I found a facsimile edition of the King Wenceslas Bible
on Amazon.fr (france)

I do not know if this facsimile edition is complete, probably not due to the cheeper cost... anyway I think it is a good book.

"La Bible de Prague
de Alain Erlande-Brandenburg, Jean Grosjean, Marcel Thomas"

other book I can suggest You are from Castel Roncolo frescoes...
http://www.comune.bolzano.it/roncolo/ie/index.htm

...and some from the "ciclo dei mesi" frescoes in Torre dell'Aquila, Castello del Buonconsiglio - Trento
