1390 (c.) two handwritten, illuminated pages from a Book of Hours in Dutch, written on vellum (107x141mm). Written in the style which was later imitated by Gutenburg and Caxton. Each page has twenty-two lines of gothic script with rubics in red, divisional initials in blue with red ornamentation, one being of seven lines. The style and embellishments is typical of Dutch origin. Delightful. From the Gerald E. Wellburn collection. Photo
