Abstract:
|
Example of Gothic script: Calendar page (October), Book of Hours. Fifteenth century, English. [Alternately, from a Flemish Book of Hours made for English use? One scholar, however, thinks the distinctive spelling of Cuthbert points to a probable northern English provenance, "possibly Yorkshire." Recto has a note in a different hand, obit Thos. de Kirkeby (?) or de affordby. . . 1409.]
