AN OUTSTANDING LEAF FROM A DELUXE BOOK OF HOURS BY THE DUNOIS MASTER AND THE ST. STEPHEN MASTER. Medieval manuscript leaves that can be attributed to identifiable masters are very rare. These specific illuminators worked for important patrons such as the Duke of Bedford, the Chancellor Guillaume Jouvenel des Ursins, and Simon de Varie.
A UNIQUE, IMPORTANT, AND EXTREMELY BEAUTIFUL LEAF, IN OUTSTANDING CONDITION.
