Hours of Charles the Noble, King of Navarre (1361-1425): fol. 227r, Text

Master of the Brussels Initials and Associates

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an open book with a medieval illuminated manuscript page. The page is yellowed and aged, with a large vertical rectangle in the center containing black text written in a language that appears to be Latin. The text is surrounded by a decorative border of blue, gold, and red vines and stars. Two humanoid figures with animal features are present: one at the bottom with red clothing and a blue hat, and another on the right side with a red cape and blue pants. The figures appear to be climbing the border. Small birds and other decorative elements are scattered throughout the page. The book is open to a specific page, with the page number "227" visible in the bottom-right corner. The overall design and style of the page suggest that it is from a 15th-century manuscript.
