Description:
|
From a 16th century breviary, with a miniature woodcut. The expertise of the xylographer shows in the accuracy of the woodcuts. The title and last pages of the book are missing, but even so the book can be attributed to the first half of the 16th century and is most likely the work of the Southern French press. On the page on the left, the recto side is marked 482. On the page on the right, the recto side is marked 44.
