Painted Prayers; The Book of Hours in Medieval and Renaissance Art Full Description
This volume features some of the finest examples of illuminated pages from medieval and Renaissance Books of Hours. A bestseller for three hundred years, the Book of Hours was a devotional work that almost everyone owned and virtually knew by heart. Medieval life -- and death -- cannot begin to be understood without examining this collection of stirring words and inspiring images. Painted Prayers introduces the Book of Hours to the general reader, discussing its iconography, the artists who illuminated this genre, and its role as a religious text in the lives of its owners. The 107 selections illustrated here in glorious color are the most important examples of medieval and Renaissance illumination from The Pierpont Morgan Library, one of the world's richest collections of the hand-painted book.
