Leaf from a Book of Hours: Office of the Dead: Two Devils (verso)

Coëtivy Master

Cleveland Museum of Art

Medieval-style illuminated manuscript page with a central text block. The central text block is rectangular with a brown border and contains black text in a medieval script. The page is framed by a colorful border of blue, green, yellow, and red floral patterns. A small circular illustration on the left side depicts two dark figures, possibly devils, standing on a yellow ground with a blue sky and green trees. The figures appear to be wearing dark clothing and have dark faces. The page has a beige background with signs of aging and wear. The border and text block are intricately decorated with gold accents. The circular illustration is positioned in the lower-left corner of the page. The two dark figures are shown in a scene with a natural background. The manuscript page appears to be from a book of hours.
