Tiny demons tumble through the blue sky, and above them angels in white flank an empty gold throne in a ring of flame. Two lines of Gothic script with a blue initial sit below, and the cream border teems with blue and gold acanthus, red flowers, a dragon, a bird and a seated ape.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCharles the Bold, duke of Burgundy and a military commander, had a suffrage prayer to Saint Michael placed in his personal prayer book, and this miniature opens it. The illuminator carried the battle into the border, where fantastic beasts square up to one another in the same spirit as the fight above.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: a folio from the Prayer Book of Charles the Bold, tempera colours, gold leaf, gold paint, silver paint and ink on parchment, written in Ghent and illuminated in Antwerp in 1469; J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLieven van Lathem (about 1430–1493) was a Flemish illuminator, a member of the painters' guilds of Ghent and Antwerp, who worked for the dukes of Burgundy, Philip the Good and Charles the Bold. Influenced by Jan van Eyck and Dieric Bouts, he painted in fresh, intense colours with a lyrical naturalism, especially in his landscapes, and collaborated with the Master of Mary of Burgundy and Nicolas Spierinc. Miniatures he painted in 1469 are in the J. Paul Getty Museum.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is a giclée, printed to order.
