- [LIVRE D\'HEURES - ENLUMINURES] Fragments recto verso des suffrages

fin XVe- début XVIe s. | 12.20 x 16.70 cm | feuillet sur parchemin fin XVe- début XVIe s. | 12.20 x 16.70 cm | feuillet sur parchemin | Fragments recto verso d\'un livre d\'heures manuscrit sur parchemin avec encadrements somptueusement enluminés à pleine page. Cette division en compartiments des ornements est représentative de la production des ateliers rouennais et parisiens au tournant du XVIe siècle. Deux pages enluminées sur un feuillet recto verso : encadrement divisé en bandeaux et losanges ornés de motifs floraux, de fruits et rinceaux, lettrines dorées peintes de rouge et bleu alternés, bouts-de ligne et rubriques. La richesse de l\'enluminure caractérise ces livres liturgiques destinés aux laïcs. Les livres d\'heures étaient à l\'époque des bijoux de piété, à la fois un instrument de la pratique religieuse et une revendication sociale affirmée par la richesse du travail des artistes. Véritable petit tableau, ce feuillet est extrait probablement d\'un luxueux volume où chaque page était soigneusement peinte. On retrouve ici un fragment des suffrages qui contient quatres prières aux Saints : à St Jean-Baptiste, St Jean l\'Evangéliste et deux autres ""Pulchre salutationes ad xpm. videlicet in elevatione corporis ipsius"" suivie de ""Alia salutatio. Salue sancta caro dei..."" Écriture dite cursiva libraria sur des longues lignes. Témoin de la formalisation de l\'écriture cursive à l\'aube de la Renaissance française, cette écriture est emblématique de la production des copistes français pour les laïcs durant la période. | [ENGLISH DESCRIPTION FOLLOWS] Recto verso fragments of a manuscript book of hours on parchment with sumptuously illuminated full-page borders. This compartmentalized division of ornaments is representative of the production from Rouen and Parisian workshops at the turn of the 16th century. Two illuminated pages on a recto verso leaf: border divided into bands and lozenges decorated with floral motifs, fruits and leafy designs, gilt initials painted in alternating red and blue, line fillers and rubrics. The richness of the illumination characterizes these liturgical books intended for laypeople. Books of hours were at the time jewels of piety, both an instrument of religious practice and a social statement affirmed by the richness of the artists\' work. A true small painting, this leaf is probably extracted from a luxurious volume where each page was carefully painted. We find here a fragment of the suffrages which contains four prayers to the Saints: to St. John the Baptist, St. John the Evangelist and two others ""Pulchre salutationes ad xpm. videlicet in elevatione corporis ipsius"" followed by ""Alia salutatio. Salue sancta caro dei..."" Script called cursiva libraria on long lines. Witness to the formalization of cursive script at the dawn of the French Renaissance, this script is emblematic of the production of French scribes for laypeople during the period. *
