Description
Original about 11 consecutive pages from Verve (Paris, 1939) devoted to Jean Fouquet, the Condé Museum at Chantilly, and the Book of Hours of Étienne Chevalier. This is a substantial, coherent section rather than a single loose plate, combining scholarly text with richly printed medieval illumination reproductions. The group includes the opening title page, essay pages, and color plates such as The Virgin’s Marriage, all from the same run and still presenting as a meaningful unit.
