medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Dear Eleanor,

There is a similar image at upper right at Morgan Library, Morgan MS M.231, fol. 137r:
http://ica.themorgan.org/manuscript/page/30/77118
Detail view:
http://ica.themorgan.org/icaimages/2/m231.137rb.jpg
The Morgan's catalogue entry for this ms. does not associate it with Antoine de Navarre.  Assuming, then, that these are two different books of hours, perhaps the literature on the Morgan ms. will lead to an identification of the one you seek.

Best,
John Dillon

medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
In my studies on the illuminations of the Office of the Dead in 15 C Books of Hours I have recently discovered an image in ‘Women and Religion in Late Medieval Norwich” by Carole Hill. The image is of a woman sewing a body into a shroud and is the illumination for the beginning of the Office of the Dead. The label says it is from the 15 C Hours of Antoine of Navarre. I have not been able to discover where these Hours are to get more details of the image. I would be extremely grateful for any suggestions as to how I might get more information.
