Breviary, Initial 'O' with the Assumption of the Virgin, This small breviary, having more that five hundred folio, is extraordinary for its length, considering it is the summer portion of a two-volume breviary for the use of Liège. The manuscript was completed for ecclesiastical use at Cathedral of Notre-Dame and St. Lambert in Liège in 1420 circa. The attribution is evidenced for instance by the Petitions to the congregation of this Cathedral, as well as the armorial shield of the family of Surlet de Chokier of Liège represented at the opening of the Psalms. The manuscript has a modest, but interesting, decoration with historiated and non figural initials that mark the liturgical texts. The folios opening the major divisions of the texts, display a border decoration with natural motifs and angels playing instruments. The most notable pictorial effect is probably found in the initials inhabited by transparent figures on rich blue ground.
