Title
Book of Hours, Use of Utrecht; Scenes from the Life of Christ
Description

Free Library of Philadelphia, Lewis E 130. Leiden, Netherlands, 1475-1500; circa 1520. This compact Book of Hours, which lacks certain frequently-found texts including the Hours of the Virgin, Penitential Psalms, and Office of the Dead, contains Dutch translations of other, less common devotional texts first authored by Geert Groote around 1380. The calendar is of the Use of Utrecht, with an entry in red for Saint Jeroen (17 August, fol. 8v). The Hours of Eternal Wisdom occurs directly after the calendar. The miniatures in this Book of Hours, of smaller dimensions than the text pages, were inserted into the Hours of the Cross at least twenty years after the manuscript was produced. They are inserted randomly within the text and do not mark the traditional divisions of the Hours of the Cross. These miniatures were painted by a member of a group of anonymous artists known collectively as the Masters of the Suffrages. These artists were active in Leiden during the first decades of the sixteenth century.
