Western Medieval Manuscripts : Book of Hours

Western Medieval Manuscripts

<p style='text-align: justify;'>This manuscript is an early example of a Book of Hours produced in Bruges for the English market. The Calendar lists Sts Donatian, Judoc, Basil and Eligius and the Litany includes 'S. Gheertrudis'. A London or Essex provenance is suggested by the presence of a <i>memoria</i> for St Ethelburga, which was added in the early 15th century (f. <a href='' onclick='store.loadPage(34);return false;'>16v</a>). The miniatures were painted by a single artist, known to modern scholarship as the Master of the Beaufort Saints.</p>
