Illuminated Manuscript Leaf from Book of Hours 15th Century
Illuminated Leaf from 15th Century French Book of Hours In the days before printing. Books were painstakingly hand-written by scribes and monks who put extraordinary effort into creating magnificently decorated texts. Gold was a favorite medium in which the scribes and monks worked and they often used it lavishly, creating marvelous illuminated letters, designs, and pictures(called miniatures) Indeed the books were so carefully scribed and the scribes so talented that these books are truly works of art from the middle ages. Because of the labor and expense involved. People wishing to own one of these treasures would pay dearly. Over the centuries, the historical value and artistic beauty of the individual leaves have attracted many collectors who display them as personal treasures from a time long past.

1 Leaf Illuminated Latin Book of Hours Vellum Manuscript Dating to 15th Century
Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE First of all. I must mention that this particular leaf of the Latin Book of Hours is one of the most unique and beautiful leaves I have ever seen. It also has a unique design that I have never seen before. It consists of a square divided with red ink into four compartments, which looks like a symbol of the Christian cross. Then I took the time to decipher the main words in a xerox copy of the leaf, and I found to my surprise(and confirmation of my earlier idea) that the word to the next of the design is in fact the Latin word"Cross" see the 2nd scanned image. Bottom line, on the right side) Absolutely Beautiful! This auction is for a beautiful illuminated manuscript animal-skin vellum(not paper) Book of Hours leaf(Use of Rome) Its provenance is Italy. Probably Tuscany. It dates from ... morethe 15th century, about 1450-1470 A.D. This particular manuscript leaf has twelve(12) colored initials. Made with blue and red ink, with one of them being very large and having ornate filagrees that span 3 1/4 inches(see the 1st scanned image) This leaf has the following: the NOMINA SACRA in the abbreviated form for the word"Domine" abbreviated to"dne, mean ing"O Lord" also. The NOMINA SACRA abbreviation of"Dominus" in the shortened form"dns" meaning"The Christ" Deus" meaning"God" Evil Deeds" the abbreviation"oro" for"oratio" meaning"Prayer" Poor" Liberator" Cross" Sign" Eternal" two(2) instances of"King" and two(2) instances of" Please Save! The size is about 2 1/2 in. x 4 3/4 in. This is an amazingly beautiful handwritten text on vellum. Which is made from a calf skin, a lamb skin, or a kid skin. Most of what I work with is paper. So it is very nice to feel a sheet of real vellum-with the smooth and slick side which is the"skin side" and the other side which is rougher and you can see the small black marks where the hair fol

Illuminated Vellum Leaf from an Italian Medieval Manuscript Book of Hours c.1460
This is a single vellum leaf from a tiny(93mm x 62mm) late medieval book of hours penned in Italy approximately 1460. This page has 13 lines of text per side of abbreviated medieval Latin in a fine rounded Gothic hand that would seem to imply an origin in the Bolognia region. It is ever so lighly ruled with a plummett(early pencil/lead stick) it has a single burnished gold two line letter"L" and 10 single line initials in alternating blue and red. In the third photo you can see that the"L" is pristine and unrubbed. When you mouse over the red and blue initials you can see in the closeup the guide letters that the scribe wrote so the illuminator would know what letter to paint in. Particularly the 3rd. 4th, and 5th initials on the side with the"L" The leaf itself is overall very clean and un-thumbed. Because of ... moreit's small size it was probably made for a woman; it's owners have used it very gently over the centuries. The text is from the 3rd Canonical hour of Terce; Joy of the Pilgrim Entering Jerusalem" it is Psalm 121 in the Vulgate Bible or 122 in the King James Version. Starting with the gold"L" it follows: Laetatus sum in his quae dicta sunt mihi: In domum Domini ibimus. Stantes erant pedes nostri. In atriis tuis, Jerusalem. Jerusalem, quae aedificatur ut civitas: cujus participatio ejus in idipsum. Illuc enim ascenderunt tribus, tribus Domini: testimonium Israël, ad confitendum nomini Domini. Quia illic sederunt sedes in judicio, sedes super domum David. Rogate quae ad pacem sunt Jerusalem(Notice that Jerusalem is spelled in an"H" hierusalem) The English translation of this passage from the Douay-Rheims Bible is: I rejoiced at the things that were said to me: We shall go into the house of the Lord. Our feet were standing in thy courts. O Jerusalem. Jerusalem, which is built as a city, which is compact together. For thither did the tribes go up, the tribes of the Lord: the testimony of Israel, to praise the name of the Lord. Because their seat
