1. Book of Hours, 15th Century, Heart-Shaped when opened the little book of hours of Amiens Nicolas Blairie  carefully written on a thin Ruling rose, but modestly decorated  with some original illuminations in ink (folio 29),  has the curious shape of an almond when it is closed.  When it opens, the two halves of the almond bloom to fit the contours  of a heart, concrete evocation of the heart of the person  praying the prayer that opens.

2. The “Codex Rotundus” owes its name to its round shape.  It is a small book of hours (9 cm diameter) made in Bruges in 1480.  Thumbnails are most likely from the workshop  of Dutchman Willem Date illuminator.
