DAS STUNDENBUCH DER HERZOGIN PHILIPPA VON GELDE...

A richly illustrated book of hours was produced in the surroundings of the Parisian court at
the beginning of the sixteenth century  presumably commissioned by Philippa von Geldern (1467-
1546)  Princess of Lower Saxony and later Duchess of Lorraine. Jean Coene IV  one of the few
illuminators of the time who is known by name  furnished the unusual work with a completely
illustrated calendar and twenty-four - of formerly twenty-seven - large miniatures. The book of
hours  which is privately owned  is now being presented to the public in its entirety for the
first time - accompanied by an examination of the role of the client and of the classification
of Jean Coene IV as an illuminator Roll within the context of Parisian book art around 1500.
