A PAIR OF PAGES FROM A MEDIEVAL 'BOOK OF HOURS', CA. 14/15TH CEN.
Two pages were originally part of an illuminated medieval book of hours, a type of prayer book common across the European world in this era. This example is likely from the second half of the 1300s or the first half of the 1400s. One of the pages has a beautifully illuminated letter 'A' in gold with decoration in red and blue emanating above and blowing it along the left side of the text. Various letters throughout the pages are inked in red or blue as well, usually to mark the beginning of a new sentence.
The frame has glass on both sides so that one may see either side of the manuscript pages. The pages have been held within the matting via archival tape.
