Abstract
Description
This item is a new acquisition of the DAAP Library teaching collection. The items in this collection are meant to be used for teaching purposes and exhibition. This is a single paper folio from a Book of Hours that appears to have been torn from the book itself. The folio shows a representation of the Virgin Mary with visual metaphors on the recto, and text and small miniatures on the verso. The primary support is a light beige laid paper, and the text is printed in black and red ink. The imagery on the folio appears to have been hand colored with colored inks, such as red, blue, and green.
