Northern France late 15th century. ***A fine manuscript though sadly affected by water-damage of three of the `sapiental` books of the Bible associated with King Solomon: Proverbs Ecclesiastes and Wisdom in the bible historiale version by Guyart des Moulins based on Peter Comestor`s Latin Historica Scholastica. The miniatures depict (f. 1r) Solomon enthroned with a group of courtiers beside him insructing his son Rehoboam in an architectural setting with a glimpse of a hilly landscape visible through an open door; (f. 47r) Solomon enthroned between two groups of courtiers (or students?). behind them a wall and behind that glimpses of landscape; (f. 64r) Solomon seated at a large desk writing on a scroll in an architectural setting with shelves of books high up on either side with lansdcape visible through a window above. The three miniatures are in similar architectural borders predominantly in gold with coloured pillars on either side and a tasseled cord on the right on which a small golden manikin is climbing at the foot a gilt pedestal on which is a panel or scroll with 4 lines of text. Provenance: from the La Rochefoucauld family library with signature at foot of first page very similar to that found in books in the Bibliothèque du Château de la Roche-Guyon sold by Sotheby`s in Monaco 9th Dec 1987 (cf lot 753) though unlike the books in that sale this manuscript has neither the library stamp on title nor the family arms on the covers.
