Iluminated Lorenzo de Medici Book of Hours Facsimile Limited Edition by Panini
The Book of Hours of Lorenzo de’ Medici Limited Edition by Franco Cosimo Panini. Almost Originals, numbered and certified. The original book is in Firenze, in the Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana. This codex is one of the five. Libriccini delli offitii, di donna. (small books of the offices, for the use of ladies) of the inventory drawn up in 1492 following the death of Lorenzo de Medici , who commissioned them for the weddings of his daughters. The description, for the use of ladies, seems already to indicate that the works are small and also precious, like a jewel each a work to be consigned to the loving care of a lady of the Renaissance. With its small 10 x 15 cm format, this Ashburnham 1874 codex is hardly larger than a postcard. Before even considering the content, one is struck by its extraordinary violet velvet binding, with gilded silver filigree work bosses and ferrules. The covers also feature a large lapis lazuli and four rose quartzes. In all its parts, this codex is most surely a work of the highest order. This is quite evident in its binding, the harmonious script and the marvellously refined illumination work, ascribed to the engraver, illuminator, cartographer and painter, Francesco Rosselli, who (like Francesco di Antonio del Chierico) was a major exponent of the Florentine school. Each of the 233 leafs of the manuscript includes at least one adornment, an initial or frieze, included with such artistry, awareness of the conventions, and harmony that it cannot fail to delight the eye of even the most discerning and exacting bibliophile. For the The Book of Hours of Lorenzo de Medici , as for all other facsimile editions published by Franco Cosimo Panini Editore, a commentary or treatise is also provided. The contributors are selected from among the most highly renowned experts and scholars in the field. Preparation of the commentary takes place concurrently with the facsimile work itself. The commentary is therefore fully updated with the findings emerging from the photographic campaign. This work provides experts and scholars with an opportunity to look into all aspects relating to the career of the codex as a work of historic and artistic interest. Fully comprehensive information is provided for scholars in the form of files for each manuscript page. The commentary has been published also for distribution without the codex itself (bound edition with dust jacket). Il Libro d’Ore di Lorenzo de’ Medici. El códice es uno de los cinco libriccini delli offitii, di donna (es decir, pequeños Libros de Horas destinados al público femenino) citados en el inventario redactado en 1492 a la muerte de Lorenzo de Médici, que debió de encargarlos como regalo de boda para sus hijas. Ya esta definición con las palabras de mujer evoca algo pequeño y al mismo tiempo precioso como una joya, concebido para dejar que pasasen sus páginas los delicados dedos de una dama renacentista. Poco más grande que una tarjeta postal moderna (mide en efecto apenas 10 x 15 cm), el códice Ashburnam 1874 resulta imponente ya incluso antes de abrir sus tapas por su extraordinaria encuadernación de terciopelo violeta, con tachuelas y cantoneras de plata dorada con filigranas, en las cuales se encuentran engastados en cada cubierta un gran lapislázuli y cuatro cuarzos rosas. Todos los elementos de este códice denotan un origen y un destino prestigiosos: desde la encuadernación y la melodiosa escritura hasta el muy refinado conjunto de miniaturas atribuido a Francesco Rosselli, artista del grabado, miniador, cartógrafo y pintor, que junto con Francesco di Antonio del Chierico fue el máximo exponente de la escuela florentina. Cada una de las 233 hojas del manuscrito contiene al menos un elemento, una inicial o una cenefa que adorna el texto, engastado en la página siguiendo los cánones armónicos más rigurosos del arte de la decoración de libros. Como todas las ediciones facsímiles de Franco Cosimo Panini Editore, el Libro de Horas de Lorenzo de Médici también va acompañada de un volumen de comentarios científicos a cargo de los principales expertos y estudiosos de la materia. El volumen, redactado durante la puesta a punto de la obra y actualizado por lo tanto con los últimos resultados obtenidos a lo largo de la campaña fotográfica, permite profundizar en todos sus aspectos los acontecimientos históricos y artísticos del códice, proporcionado además una exhaustiva ficha codicológica y un detallado estudio comparativo sobre las páginas del precioso manuscrito.
