Description |
Department of Prints, Drawings, and Photographs, 1945‑65‑16. Flanders, circa 1460. This Book of Hours, produced in Flanders around 1460, features an extensive collection of texts devoted to the Virgin Mary, including her Mass and her Office for Advent as well as the usual Hours and prayers. Its full contents are: a calendar (fols. 1v-13r), the Hours of the Holy Spirit (fols. 16r-21v), the Hours of the Cross (fols. 23r-28v), the Mass of the Virgin (fols. 30r-34r), Gospel Lessons (fols. 34v-38r), the prayers Obsecro te and O intemerata (fols. 38v-43r), eight suffrages (fols. 44r-47v), the Hours of the Virgin for the Use of Rome (fols. 49r-106r), the Office of the Virgin for Advent (fols. 108r-114v), the Penitential Psalms followed by the Litany and prayers (fols. 116r-131v), and the Office of the Dead (fols. 133r-168r). There are fourteen full-page miniatures. These show: Pentecost (fol. 15v), Saint Bernardino of Siena (fol. 22v), the Virgin and Child (fol. 29v), the Annunciation (fol. 48v), the Visitation (fol. 64v), the Nativity (fol. 74v), the Annunciation to the Shepherds (fol. 79v), the Adoration of the Magi (fol. 84v), the Presentation in the Temple (fol. 89v), the Massacre of the Innocents (fol. 94v), the Flight into Egypt (fol. 101v), the Coronation of the Virgin (fol. 107v), the Last Judgement (fol. 115v), and the Raising of Lazarus (fol. 132v). All miniatures appear Flemish in origin except Saint Bernardino miniature (fol. 22v), which appears French in style and is also the only miniature not to have a grisaille border. The reason for the addition of this miniature in a different style may be due to Saint Bernardino's recent canonization, in 1450. In addition to these full-page miniatures, there are ten historiated initials showing the Virgin and Child (fol. 38v), Pietà (fol. 41r), and the eight saints commemorated in the suffrages–four male and four female (fols. 44r-47v).
