Description

Leaf from a large illuminated Pontifical, in Latin, manuscript on parchment [France, fifteenth century]

Single large leaf, with single column of 15 lines in high-grade late gothic bookhand (with the ritual for the ordination of those from the four minor orders of acolyte, exorcist, lector and porter, in particular the ordination of acolytes), with hairline penstrokes added for ornamental effect, red rubrics and instructions, capitals touched in yellow wash, one-line initial and cross in burnished gold on blue and dark pink grounds heightened with white penwork, one large initial in same, triangular section of lower margin cut away, a few small spots and stains, overall in excellent and fresh condition, 346 by 230mm.

From a grand Pontifical manuscript, one of the rarest of liturgical books to survive from the Middle Ages, containing the rites and ceremonies performed by a bishop or a pope. Many of the surviving pontificals from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries are personal commissions for individual bishops. The only comprehensive study is that of V. Leroquais, Les Pontificaux manuscrits des BibliothÃ¨ques Publiques de France, 1937. Only one other leaf from this parent volume has been traced, that appearing in Pirages, cat. 60 (2010), no. 423. This leaf from the collection of Roger Martin (1939-2020) of Grimsby.
