Buchwesen - Faksimileausgaben – Das Stundenbuch ist wohl eines der schönsten Manuskripte der Zeit, das der Herzog von Berry bei den Brudern Van Limburg in Auftrag gab, die zuvor seine Belles Heures verfasst hatten. Da sowohl der Auftraggeber als auch die Kunstler starben, wurde das Werk posthum von Jean Colombe fur den Herzog von Savoyen, vollendet. - Insgesamt sehr gut erhalten.

Books on Books - Facsimile Editions – The Monthly Pages of the Calendar. Facsimile pages of the twelve monthly pages of manuscript no. 65 from the collection of the Musée Condé in Chantilly. Loose in red cloth slipcase with gilt-stamped cover. - The Book of Hours is arguably one of the most beautiful manuscripts of the period, commissioned by the Duke of Berry from the Van Limburg brothers, who had previously created his Belles Heures. As both the patron and the artists died, the work was completed posthumously by Jean Colombe for the Duke of Savoy. - Overall, very well preserved.
