A fifteenth-century Netherlands Book of Hours with pen decoration in the style of the nuns of St. Agnes of Delft, containing the Hours of the Virgin in the translation of Geert Grote. Two other prayer books with similar pen decoration can be found nearby for comparison and study, one at the YRL, Special Collections MS 170/630, and the other at the Huntington Library, MS 1127. The present manuscript was dismembered in 1987, and we acquired it in leaves from Cherokee Books in Santa Monica.
