Book of Hours, Presentation in the temple, This Book of Hours was created ca.1460-70 in the Bruges region by artists influenced by the famous illuminator Willem Vrelant. Its fifteen surviving miniatures have been heavily repainted, as have many of the borders, and Lillian Randall has suggested this campaign of refurbishment was likely requested by a later owner who may be depicted in the fully redone Last Judgment image. The limited number of figures, simplification of drapery folds, and avoidance of painting hands where possible show the streamlining used by workshops in this period, which were generating large numbers of similar books.
