Pale stone arches frame the scene above a pink-and-green checkered floor. Four lines of Latin text in alternating blue and red sit below the miniature. Gold ivy-leaf tracery fills the vellum border, with a blue-and-red dragon and a small blue mask at the top.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is a full-page miniature from the Belles Heures, a book of hours the Limbourg brothers made for Jean, Duke of Berry, around 1405-1409. It is the only complete book from the Limbourgs' own hand; their later Très Riches Heures was left unfinished. The manuscript entered the Metropolitan Museum of Art, The Cloisters, in 1954.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Limbourg Brothers, Herman, Paul and Johan (active c. 1399–1416), were Netherlandish manuscript illuminators from Nijmegen. Nephews of the painter Jean Malouel, they were born in the late 1380s, and Herman and Johan were apprenticed to a Paris goldsmith by 1399. After illuminating a Bible for Philip the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, they entered the service of his brother Jean, duc de Berry, for whom they painted the Belles Heures (1405–1408\/09) and the Très Riches Heures, left unfinished when all three died in 1416. The Belles Heures is held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art at The Cloisters, and the Très Riches Heures by the Musée Condé, Chantilly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
