About this product

Product Information

In this seminal study, the late Antoine de Schryver sheds light on the exquisite prayer book of Charles the Bold now in the J. Paul Getty Museum (Ms. 37)--one of Charles's most splendid commissions, belonging to the greatest era of Netherlandish Burgundian book painting. De Schryver's in-depth research opens a window onto the careers of the Van Lathem, who served three rulers of the Burgundian Netherlands over forty years, and Nicolas Spierinc, the most inventive and brilliant scribe of Charles's court. This volume reproduces all of the book's miniatures and some of its elegant calligraphic pages.

"An attractive and invaluable contribution to the study of manuscript illumination in the Burgundian Netherlands."- Manuscripta , "Combines iconographic analysis with historical-contextual study in a way not often met with in art history."-- International Review of Biblical Studies, "This book provides a wealth of knowledge that no one interested in early Netherlandish paintings can ignore."-- Burlington Magazine, "A definitive work, not only for the artistic character and significance of the prayer book, but generally for the two painters' standing and achievements during a brilliant phase of Netherlandish art. . . . Meticulously and sumptuously produced."-- The Art Newspaper, "Combines iconographic analysis with historical-contextual study in a way not often met with in art history."- International Review of Biblical Studies, "This book provides a wealth of knowledge that no one interested in early Netherlandish paintings can ignore."- Burlington Magazine, "A definitive work, not only for the artistic character and significance of the prayer book, but generally for the two painters' standing and achievements during a brilliant phase of Netherlandish art. . . .  Meticulously and sumptuously produced."-- The Art Newspaper, "An attractive and invaluable contribution to the study of manuscript illumination in the Burgundian Netherlands."-- Manuscripta, "An attractive and invaluable contribution to the study of manuscript illumination in the Burgundian Netherlands."-- Manuscripta , "A definitive work, not only for the artistic character and significance of the prayer book, but generally for the two painters' standing and achievements during a brilliant phase of Netherlandish art. . . .  Meticulously and sumptuously produced."- The Art Newspaper

Will buy from this seller again. Fantastic price and I do belive the book was shipped exactly as described. That being said it was shipped in a thin envelope that was about as thick as construction paper and the inside was covered with glue. Book still arrived in decent shape but I think adding some bubble wrap in the future would be a good idea. I'm still giving a 5 star review because it was shipped quickly and I belive when it was given to the post office it was in the described condition.
