Hours of Charles the Noble, King of Navarre (1361-1425): fol. 277r, Text

Master of the Brussels Initials and Associates

The image shows an open, old book with yellowed pages. The page on the right has a large, vertical border down the center with blue, red, gold, and black details. The border is decorated with a tree-like design with leaves and flowers. The tree design extends to the top and bottom of the page. The top and bottom borders feature birds and insects. A bird sits on a branch at the top right, and a mermaid-like figure plays a lute at the bottom center. The page has red and black text written in a language that appears to be Latin. The text is written in a formal, cursive script. The left page is partially visible, with some green text and a gold ribbon bookmark. The background behind the book is dark and out of focus. The book appears to be resting on a flat surface.
