Note 392 — SECTION II. PRINTED BOOKS ILLUSTRATED WITH ENGRAVINGS BY TORY OR HIS PUPILS. (continued 2)

George Burnham Ives translation

I have seen this engraving in a fragment of a book of Hours, printed in Roman type at a date which I cannot fix although it was contemporaneous. This fragment consists of signatures Aa and Bb (a half-signature), that is, 12 leaves, numbered 185 to 196. Signature Aa begins (folio 185) with a title-page printed in red, in these words: 'Die dominica ad vesperas. Psalmus.' The engraving in question is below them. The last page of Bb ends with the word 'finis,' which proves that the book had but 25 signatures.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
