Abstract (en)

Examines a book of hours made in Amiens during the 1430s known as the d'Ailly Hours (private collection), which is named after its original owner Raoul d'Ailly (d.1468). Argues that the Virgin and Child in an Interior miniature on folio 88v reflects a painting created in Campin's workshop. Speculates that Raoul "...may have owned a painting from the workshop of Robert Campin which he made available to the illuminator to be reproduced in his smart new, specially commissioned manuscript".
