Please sign in so that we can notify you about a reply
The unique "project" to create a "magnificent watchmaker was carried out by the Duke of Berrian, the son of King John II Good. He was illustrated by the Limburg brothers. Contemporaries nicknamed the Duke "King of the Caucasus", since there were other hours in his possession. The Duke committed a kind of revolution in the book business, having released this "project": in the "magnificent hourly", both the solemnity of religious texts and the entertainment of plots from the daily life of peasants and nobility were connected.
