Turin-Milan Hours.

Illuminated manuscript begun in the late 14th century and finished in the mid-15th, the work of French and Netherlandish illuminators and one of the major monuments of northern European art. The identification of the various sections (Paris, Bib. N., MS. nouv. acq. lat. 3093; Paris, Louvre, R.F. 2022–5; section in Turin, Bib. N. U., MS. K. IV. 29, destr. 1904; Turin, Mus. Civ. A. Ant., Inv. no. 47) was established by Durrieu (1902), but the history of the manuscript has been interpreted in various ways. The reconstruction presented here accounts for most, if not all, of the complex evidence.
