Excerpt from A Psalter and Hours Executed Before 1270 for a Lady Connected With St. Louis, Probably His Sister Isabelle of France, Founder of the Abbey of Longchamp, Now in the Collection of Henry Yates Thompson: Described by S.

Kalendar. This is beautifully written in alternate lines of blue and burnished gold, each month occupying a page. The letters KL are inscribed ln pink and blue on a square gold panel at the head of each month, but, curiously enough in a book of this magnificence, there are no illustrations of the Labours of the Months or of the Signs of the Zodiac. This remark applies also to the Paris volume.
