Various artists contributed to the illumination of this book of
hours. Some simple miniatures are the work of an artist who trained
in the circle of the Master of John the Fearless. Many faces of
Mary were created by the Master of Marguerite of Orléans, an
important book illuminator around 1430. In the 15th century, the
manuscript belonged to Guillaume Prevost, as attested by the
baptismal entries written in the “Livre de raison” (f. 186v).
