‎Heures des Jeunes Chrétiens.‎

‎Paris, Marcilly, ca. 1815. 1815 1 vol. in-24° (68 x 46 mm.) de : [1] f. (faux titre) 128 pp. (dont titre gravé) ; 5 planches gravées. Annotations à l'encre noire au début et in-fine. Cartonnage recouvert de papier imitant du maroquin à grain long, encadrement doré sur les plats avec frises étoilées, dos lisse orné, tranches dorées, étui dans le même style.‎

‎Charmant petit livre d'heures destiné aux jeunes chrétien contenant l'Ordre de la Messe et divers services en français ainsi que des hymnes et prières en latin. Ce minuscule se termine par le service du mariage, plutôt que par le service des morts, comme c'était la coutume dans les anciens livres d'heures. Lillustration se compose dun titre gravé et cinq planches, la plus charmante montrant David dansant et jouant de la harpe, alors qu'il dirige la procession de l'Arche. On peut aussi y apercevoir la Sainte-Vierge entourée de deux anges. Le début et la fin de louvrage sont annotés à lencre. Ces annotations sont des prières: une prière pour une communion au début de louvrage et deux prières destinés aux parents défunts à la fin. Bel exemplaire. 1 vol. in-24° (68 x 46 mm.) of : [1] f. ; 128 pp. ; 5 engraved plates. Annotations in black ink at the beginning and in-fine. Cardboard covered with long grain morocco imitation paper. Charming little book of hours for young Christians containing the Order of the Mass and various services in French as well as hymns and prayers in Latin. This tiny book ends with the wedding service, rather than the service for the dead, as was the custom in the old Books of Hours. The illustration consists of an engraved title and five plates, the most charming showing David dancing and playing the harp as he leads the Ark procession. The Blessed Virgin surrounded by two angels can also be seen. The beginning and the end of the work are annotated in ink. These annotations are prayers: a prayer for communion at the beginning of the work and two prayers for the deceased parents at the end. Nice copy.‎

‎A BEAUTIFUL ILLUMINATED MANUSCRIPT BREVIARY ON VELLUM IN LATIN WITH FINE HISTORIATED INITIALS AND MINIATURE‎

‎USE OF PARIS‎

‎Paris after or in 1398 and before ca. 1405. 195 x 135 mm. 7 3/4 x 5 1/4". 587 leaves COMPLETE double column 32 lines in a lovely gothic script by more than one hand. A full list of contents available upon request. Two volumes. HANDSOME DARK RED MOROCCO BY W. H. SMITH AND SON stamp signed "WHS" in gilt on rear turn-ins covers sem� with gilt fleurs-de-lys tools gilt Celtic-inspired knot centerpieces raised bands spine compartments with rows of fleurs-de-lys gilt titling plain morocco turn-ins vellum doublures and endleaves all edges gilt. In fleece-lined slipcases. Rubrics in red line-enders in blue gold and red numerous one- or two-line initials in gold with dark blue penwork or bright blue with red penwork a total of 19 three-line initials painted blue and pink on gold ground with ivy leaf extenders three six- or seven-line initials similarly decorated and NINE SIX- OR SEVEN-LINE HISTORIATED INITIALS AND ONE 10-LINE MINIATURE THREE OF THESE WITH FULL RINCEAUX BORDERS WITH DECORATIVE U-SHAPED BARS each image with the figures portrayed against a tessellated background the letter painted blue or pink on contrasting ground within a thin gold border. With a few contemporary and later notations and pen-trials; old bookseller's description tipped onto front free endpaper of volume I. Bernard Quaritch "Illuminated and other Manuscripts" 1931 no. 21. Bindings with very trivial imperfections but especially lustrous and very fine. The full borders just slightly trimmed the six Calendar leaves with small modern marginal repairs text not affected trivial rubbing to paint in a few places the silver tarnished as usual burnished gold worn away in a few places occasional small smudges to ink and other minor mostly marginal blemishes but generally showing few signs of use and in all A LOVELY MANUSCRIPT VERY CLEAN AND ATTRACTIVE AND THE HISTORIATED INITIALS ESPECIALLY WELL PRESERVED. This beautifully bound Breviary is both impressively voluminous and handsomely decorated with an explosion of small gilt and painted initials and ten figural scenes painted with remarkable skill. Although the historiated initials stand less than 30 mm. tall or in the case of the single miniature 42 mm. the level of detail--from the finely molded faces to the tessellated backgrounds that glisten like snakeskin-indicate they were executed by a highly competent atelier. All nine initials occur in volume I with subjects that include five depictions of David in prayer or playing music ff. 7r 16v 24r 35r and 42r; a fool with a staff f. 29v; a scene with four tonsured clerics at a lectern f. 49r; the Father and Son in matching robes and haloes seated and facing each other f. 56v; and a holy man censing an altar as God looks down from a cloudburst f. 77r. Volume I also contains a miniature of the Trinity depicting God the Father seated and supporting a crucified Christ while a dove the Holy Spirit gracefully descends from the Father's mouth to the Son. The scene is adored by a kneeling cleric dressed in red-tinged robes a white surplice and a long amice. Dr. Patricia Stirnemann initially proposed the intriguing possibility that the cleric might be pseudo cardinal Pierre de F�tigny d. 1392 apostolic protonotary and canon of Paris who was named cardinal by the anti-pope Clement VII in 1383; however his dress does not seem to indicate the rank of cardinal and thus this identification remains uncertain. The excellence of the historiation and the fine quality of the hand alone make it likely to have originated in Paris and the contents further connect it to the Benedictine abbey of St. Germain des Pr�s particularly because of the presence in the Sanctorale of a major initial for the feast of St. Germain or Germanus the only initial of its type in the entire Sanctorale. The earliest proposed date for this manuscript is 1398 the year of the donation by Jean de Karoulay canon of Notre-Dame to the diocese of Paris for the celebration of the feast of St. Ivo or Yves. The proposed date for the completion of work on this Breviary ca. 1405 is suggested by the style of the decoration which includes tessellation in the backgrounds of the historiated initials and floral sprays in the borders of a particular type. We are grateful to Dr. Stirnemann for this dating and to Dr. Consuelo Dutschke for her thorough work on the manuscript's contents and localization. We could not find a record of our Breviary at auction but it appeared as item no. 21 priced at �110 in Quaritch's important 1931 catalogue of "Illuminated and other manuscripts" where it is described as "beautifully written" and featuring "very delicate miniatures with elegant ivy-leaf borders." The extremely well-preserved state of the manuscript makes it clear that this book was lovingly cared for by its previous owners for generations. unknown‎

‎A FINE MINIATURE PAINTING OF A FUNERAL SCENE FROM A BOOK OF HOURS IN LATIN‎

‎BEGINNING OF THE OFFICE OF THE DEAD‎

‎Paris early 15th century. 178 x 125 mm. 7 x 5". Text in single column four lines on recto 15 lines on verso in an excellent gothic book hand. A FINE SQUARE MINIATURE SHOWING A FUNERAL SERVICE two priests reciting from an elevated lectern and next to a large draped coffin mourners in black seated to the left the activity taking place inside a space enclosed by elegant columns and under a vaulted ceiling a lovely four-line initial beneath it in burnished gold and several colors infilled with ivy leaves in white and orange other one- or two-line initials in blue with red penwork or on the verso in burnished gold and colors THE MINIATURE SURROUNDED BY AN EXQUISITE FULL BORDER OF IVY LEAVES in colors or gold on painted and hairline stems. Remains of mounting hinge at top a few speckles a bit of yellowing and slight wrinkling in margins but the leaf very well preserved in general with no significant flaking of paint and with the gold still bright. Apart from those relatively few copies with illustrated calendars the miniatures found in Books of Hours are almost entirely devoted to retrospective Bible scenes that are obviously outside the experience of the illuminator; it is only in the present kind of funeral scene at the beginning of the Office of the Dead that we can see a contemporaneous rendering of a scene from the daily life of the Middle Ages. Miniatures that begin the Office of the Dead vary more in iconographic terms than any of the others that recur in the Book of Hours and while our painting is typical in subject matter and design it is noteworthy in at least a couple of ways. The frame and border here are beautifully executed in the style of the Boucicaut Master with much delicate and very elaborate painting all of which is shown to good advantage inside unusually comfortable margins. And although the miniature itself shows in general a relatively primitive attempt at perspective for example the pews and the altar are steeply raked the presence of the lovely slender column in the foreground in concert with the darkened vaulting behind the altar gives the painting a convincing sense of depth.The work here was done by an artist under Parisian influence and the developed architecture suggests that the painter was familiar with the Burial Services compositions created by Parisian illuminators in the 1410s. see Millard Meiss "French Painting in the Time of Jean de Berry: Boucicaut Master" London 1968 figs. 135-50 and 172-74. unknown‎

‎A VELLUM ILLUMINATED MINIATURE MANUSCRIPT BOOK OF HOURS IN LATIN AND DUTCH WITH CHARMING HISTORIATED INITIALS‎

‎USE OF ROME‎

‎Netherlands ca. 1460. 90 x 63 mm. 3 1/2 x 2 1/2". 343 leaves COMPLETE single column 17 lines in a gothic book hand. Contents: blank page f. 1r; Calendar with two charts and two diagrams in Dutch and Latin f. 1v; Various prayers to Christ and meditations on the Passion including the prayer to the Holy Face of Christ and "O Bone Jesu" f. 17; Hours of the Passion f. 24r; Hours of the Virgin f. 45r; three blank leaves f. 97-99; Various prayers to the Virgin including "O Intemerata" and "Obsecro te" f. 100r; Hours of the Holy Spirit with masses f. 124r; Weekday Hours with masses f. 133r; Seven Penitential Psalms and Litany f. 188r; Office of the Dead f. 208r; Suffrages f. 245r; Various prayers f. 274r; Seven verses of St. Bernard f. 310v; blank leaf f. 312; Reading from 2 John describing the Passion followed by various prayers f. 313r; Prayers in an informal hand f. 328r; Fifteen Paternosters in Dutch f. 329r; A rubric in Dutch followed by prayers in Dutch f. 339r. Attractive 17th century dark brown morocco with extensive gilt tooling covers and spine with a lacy circular motif surrounded by a halo of small flowers all framed by floral borders and cornerpieces original straps and brass clasps bearing a shell motif all edges gilt with a painted now faded floral design. Rubrics in red numerous one-line initials in red and blue line fillers in red and blue "KL" of Kalends and numerous two-line initials gilt on blue and pink ground many three-line initials and several larger initials at major intervals in combinations of red blue and gold with floral decoration 37 LEAVES WITH FULL FLORAL BORDERS of acanthus leaves blossoms gold dots and vine-stem and 19 HISTORIATED INITIALS including one that is more of a half-page miniature. Leather with general minor wear but the binding entirely sound and extremely pleasing. Borders with a little smudging and trimmed close at the fore edge though the decoration grazed in just a few cases vellum with light soiling here and there more on the first and last few leaves other quite minor signs of use but THE CONTENTS VERY CLEAN OVERALL AND THE HISTORIATED INITIALS WELL PRESERVED. With small-scale historiation and a large collection of accessory texts and prayers this diminutive Book of Hours is of special interest for its extensive decorative charm and textual complexity. In addition to the Hours of the Virgin integral to every Book of Hours this volume contains three other major prayer cycles: the Hours of the Passion the Hours of the Holy Spirit and the Weekday Hours. The last was a specialty of 15th century Flemish Books of Hours and as here was often accompanied by an image cycle. As noted by Wieck in "Time Sanctified" the accompanying images reflect the devotion of that particular day: Sunday Hours of the Holy Trinity Monday Hours of the Dead Tuesday Hours of the Holy Spirit Wednesday Hours of All Saints Thursday Hours of the Holy Sacrament Friday Hours of the Cross and the Saturday Hours of the Virgin. The other major cycle of images here belongs to the Hours of the Virgin and depicts the usual event for each hour: Annunciation Visitation Nativity Annunciation to the Shepherds Adoration of the Magi Presentation in the Temple Massacre of the Innocents and the Flight into Egypt. The artist of these initials had very little space to work with given the small dimensions of the page but he met the challenge with considerable success; each initial displays a surprising amount of information about the figures and surroundings. The hand is practiced and confident and the detail work quite clear. The figures make the most of the space they inhabit and the overall impression is one of great delight and an unexpected degree of character. In addition to the formal cycles mentioned above the present Book of Hours is further distinguished by an unusually large number of prayers blessings and readings most of which give clues about how this particular book would have been used. Since a Book of Hours like this one would have been highly customizable further study of these auxiliary texts could reveal much about the identity of the patron. unknown‎
