7–34. Geoffroy Tory, pages from Horae in Laudem Beautissim ce Virginis Mariae (Hours of Our Excellent Virgin Mary)

A set of border components, filled with plant and animal motifs, are combined and recombined throughout the book. The open line quality facilitates the application of color by hand. The crowned F in the bottom center of the left-hand page is an homage to King Francis I.
