Item description from seller

Editions de la Revue Verve. Paris, 1940. Tipped-in heliogravures after the 15th-century Book of Hours commissioned by the Duke de Berry. One of the most celebrated illuminated manuscripts of the late Gothic era, it was painted between 1412 and 1416 by the Limbourg Brothers. Verve publisher Tériade, long inspired by the work, sought to recreate its richly detailed images of the canonical hours prayers marking the divisions of the day as faithfully as possible for the public to study and admire. The seventh volume of Verve, The French Review of Art and Literature, entered production in Paris in March 1939, continuing even as World War II began. The meticulous process of reproducing the manuscript s vibrant colors was completed amid the turmoil, and the issue was published in March 1940, a fitting moment when, as during the Great War, prayer felt especially vital.
