A printed and hand-painted leaf from a Book of Hours
This detached leaf combines a hand-colored metalcut with gold on one side and printed Latin prayers and illustrated borders on the other. The figures are identified as Justice, Peace, the Church, and Mercy. A bookseller’s description dates it to the early sixteenth century and tentatively attributes its publication to Germain and Gilles Hardouyn in Paris; the edition and attribution remain unconfirmed.
