A book of hours following the liturgical custom of Rome, with a
calendar for the use in Poitiers. All main miniatures are by the
Master of Poitiers 30, whose name is derived from two of the
miniatures he created in a missal for use in Poitiers, which is
kept in the local city library. Earlier he was known by the name
Master of Adelaide of Savoy, for whom he created the book of hours
Ms. 76 in the Condé Museum in Chantilly. He belonged to the circle
of the Master of Jouvenel des Ursins, but was most active in
Poitiers, where he influenced later local book illumination.
