Books of Hours - Spring 2020

April 2 - 30, 2020

Sparkling with gold leaf and illustrated with many pictures, Books of Hours (the medieval “bestseller”) survive in large numbers as captivating artistic and textual expressions of daily medieval life. More than almost any other type of medieval illuminated manuscript, they are still accessible purchases and can be enjoyed, not only in museums, but at home. We can gaze at them in contented solitude after dinner, or discuss them with friends who visit, or, as Christopher de Hamel colorfully imagines, even read them in bed.
