About this title

Synopsis

Described as one the miracles of art history,Tr�s Riches Heures du Duc de Berry or Tr�s Riches Heures is probably the most important illuminated manuscript of the 15th century, "le roi des manuscrits enlumin�s" ("the king of illuminated manuscripts"). It is a very richly decorated Book of Hours containing over 200 folios, of which about half are full page illustrations. It was painted sometime between 1412 and 1416 by the Limbourg brothers for their patron Jean, Duc de Berry . They left it unfinished at their (and the Duke's) death in 1416. Charles I, Duke I of Savoy commissioned Jean Colombe to finish the paintings between 1485-1489. (Wikipedia)
