	abstract = {<p>In this article, we suggest to localize the production of the Carolingian Gospel Book, Paris, Biblioth{\`e}que nationale de France, latin 11959, in the abbey of Saint-Maur-des-Foss{\'e}s, in the Paris region, during the first half of the IXth century. This manuscript shows at the beginning a series of illuminations, with 14 canon tables, 4 Evangelists portraits and a monumental Latin cross, and, in addition, a few ornated initials. All these illuminations show mixed influences, from insular, merovingian and Charlemagne{\textquoteright}s court arts. Like some characters of the script, most of them are seen in other manuscripts originating from the abbey of the Foss{\'e}s. A notable feature of this manuscript is the cross opening the Gospel of saint Matthew, filled with insular interlacings. This cross has a strong symbolic value, at a time when theologians have launched a debate around the signification of the cross and when the Crucifixion is progressively replacing the cross in the pictures.</p>},
