        The Livre de la Chasse

        by Claude d’Anthenaise (Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature), Claudine Pailhès (Archives Départamentales de l’Ariège), Yves Christe (Université de Genève), Inès Villela-Petit (Bibliothèque nationale de France), Pascal Bergerault (Université de Tours)

        The Livre de la Chasse (Book of the Hunt) was written by Gaston Fébus, count of Foix and expert huntsman. For many years this treatise was famous for both the quality of its hunting lessons and its extraordinary illuminations: a masterpiece of early-fifteenth-century manuscript production in Paris, and one of the very few educational books to be illustrated as lavishly as a Bible. Besides the lessons it contains, this treatise also presents hunting as a redeeming exercise enabling hunters to go straight to Heaven by endowing them with an upright body and mind. The different renowned artists who worked on this manuscript placed their art at the service of Gaston Fébus’s desire to teach, thereby setting out not merely a lesson of hunting but a lesson of life     CONTENTS:   From the editor to the reader Manuel Moleiro   Foreword Claude d’Anthenaise (Director of the Musée de la Chasse et de la Nature)   Gaston Fébus.

        Isabella Breviary

        by Scot McKendrick(British Library), Elisa Ruiz García (Universidad Complutense de Madrid) and Nigel Morgan (Cambridge University)

        One of the greatest treasures that British Library owns, among its vast collection of manuscripts, is The Isabella Breviary, a late 15th century codex that has the most beautiful illuminations from Flemish artists of that period in time. On our art book, we offer you full-colour images of all the paintings from the original manuscript.   Among the many miniatures of the Breviary, made by six different artists, stand out the illuminations created by the Master of the Dresden Prayerbook, its main artist, as well as those made by the Master of James IV of Scotland, who added Renaissance elements to the work. Nigel Morgan, Emeritus Honorary Professor of the History of Art at Cambridge University, describes one by one all these images.   This art book is a unique, original and accurate masterpiece. Furthermore, on its 352 pages, you will find full information on the historical context of an amazing manuscript that Queen Isabella received back in 1497 from her ambassador, Francisco de Rojas, as a gift to commemorate both her children’s wedding. This art book reviews all the international alliances of this time in history, marked by the territorial expansions that followed the discovery of America.   CONTENTS: - From the editor to the reader Manuel Moleiro - Introduction Scot McKendrick (Head of History and Classics at the British Library) - The historical context and provenance Elisa Ruiz García (Professor of Diplomacy and Paleography, Universidad Complutense de Madrid) Scot McKendrick - Contents and authorship Nigel Morgan (Emeritus Honorary Professor of the History of Art, Cambridge University) Scot McKendrick - The illustration and decoration Nigel Morgan - Appendix - Bibliography   VIDEO (5 min.): English: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T40mG1yvAjM Spanish: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEYcdKAR2ys French: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khgtIjxfkPI   MORE INFORMATION: https://www.moleiro.com/en/art-books/the-isabella-breviary-1.html
