About this Item
This document appears to be an old Dutch religious text. It's titled "URE GEBED GEZEGYD DEN GEDUREIGEN ROOSEN-KRANS," which translates to "Hour Prayer Said the Prolonged Rosary." This likely indicates that it's a prayer guide related to the devotion of saying the Rosary which can be signed by someone to confirm they have, which this version has been. The text begins by referencing the Virgin Mary and is probably instructive on the indulgences (or spiritual benefits) granted to those who pray the Rosary. Such texts were often used to guide the faithful in prayer, especially for practices associated with specific times of day or religious observances. The text is surrounded by a decorative border with religious iconography. On the left side of the page, there's a column with what seems to be a series of emblems or small vignettes connected to the Rosary's mysteries or to the life of the Virgin Mary. At the bottom, there's a note indicating that the document was inscribed or registered on a particular date, which seems to read "Ingeschreven te Brugge," meaning "registered in Bruges," followed by a date which looks like "1 November 1831." "Brugge" has been striked through however. This suggests that the text may have been signed in the somewhere other than the city of Bruges on that date.Made by an anonymous engraver/artist.Medium: Woodcut on hand laid (verge) paper.Sheet size: 20 x 34.4 cm (7.87 x 13.54 inch).HOUR-PRAYER-PROLONGED-ROSARY | PCO-E18-4BACKGROUND INFORMATIONSource: unknown, to be determined.
