KORTE INHOUD
Commissioned in 1409 by the wealthy and influential patron Jean de Berry, the exquisite miniatures by the brothers Jean, Herman and Pol de Limbourg under the direction of Pol and later completed by Jean Colombe tell the story of a year in the daily life of the Duke's court, with no detail spared. Reproduced here in colour, to exact scale, with a revealing commentary, the book of hours' lasting glory can be enjoyed to the full.
