Note:

Manuscript note: The leaf has an old folio number ‘84’ in the upper right corner. Other leaves from the same Antiphoner are in the Free Library of Philadelphia with corresponding folio numbers ‘94’, with Vespers for the Purification, 2 February (Lewis E M 69:19) and ‘178’, with Matins for the commemoration of Saint Paul, 30 June (Lewis E M 69:20).
Bibliography: Alexander c. 2010, pp. 66-67.
One leaf: Lilian Armstrong writes of the artist’s style: “Most typical are the saint’s eyes, with their curiously puffy eyelids, and his hair and beard a distinctive mix of pale grey and yellow. Also reminiscent of Antonio Maria’s figures are the saint’s long fingers and the intensity of his gaze”.
One leaf: Latin.
One leaf: The initial opens the anitphon for Matins on the Saturday before the fhrist Sunday in November (Isaiah 6:1) The name inscribed on a banderole is Jeremiah, probably in error.
Explicit, One leaf: Vidi dominum sedentem super solium.
