Laminated illustrated wrappers, 4to, 29 cm, 230 pp, ills (some colour). Catalogue of an exhibition held at the Walters Art Gallery, Baltimore, 23 April-17 July 1988. From the blurb - "In the words of scholar L.M.J. Délaissé, the Book of Hours was the "best seller" of the late Middle Ages. This type of manuscript began to be popular in the late thirteenth century and is characterized both by its minute dimensions and sumptuous decoration. A prayerbook for the laity, it was also the most frequently commissioned book by both the aristocracy and middle classes. Its core is a series of prayers devoted to the Virgin Mary, who was deeply venerated in the late medieval era, and which were meant to be recited, ideally, at seven established canonical times (or hours) during the day. An understanding of the contents in the Book of Hours, both textually and pictorially, is essential to our understanding of late medieval piety as well as social life. Through the contributions of four authorities, Time Sanctified: The Book of Hours in Late Medieval Art and Life will examine the diverse aspects of this manuscript type. Roger Wieck provides a detailed description of the contents of the Book of Hours. Lawrence Poos discusses its social context and Virginia Reinburg sheds light on the role of the Book of Hours in late medieval piety. The results of years of research by John Plummer, who compares his findings in textual analysis with the texts of the Books of Hours presented here, will also be included." Slightly faded around spine, otherwise Near Very Good.
