The Prayer Book of Charles the Bold: A Study of a Flemish Masterpiece from the Burgundian Court. Transl. Jessica Berenbeim. Los Angeles: The J. Paul Getty Museum, 2008. 310p. cloth, $60 (ISBN 9780892369430). LC 2008-924691. 2009-03-01 3 .pdf application/pdf 1913 70 46 Chapter 5 describes the cadels, ara- besques, and illustrative motifs Spierinc used to adorn the book’s text pages, pro- viding valuable insight into his specific calligraphic techniques and comparing his own work to model books and other devotional texts of the period. These accounts not only allow de Schryver confi dently to as- cribe the prayer book’s production to two “figures of the very first rank of illumi- nated manuscript production in Flanders and Brabant during the second half of the fifteenth century,” they also enable us to place the manuscript in the wider context of Flemish book arts as a whole. cache/crl-16003.pdf txt/crl-16003.txt
