Book of Hours, Use of Rome

Publication Place: Cologne

Date of Publication: s. XVex

Provenance: Unknown.

Interpretation:

Written and decorated in the archdiocese of Cologne at the end of the fifteenth century. The initials, however, may have been added in northeastern France, where it remained until the seventeenth century. By the eighteenth century it had moved to England or North America.
