Notes | Paris, c1550. It is one of the at least three copies of the quarto Hours published in 1549 by Regnault for Claude Chaudière (Exposition de reliures, n. 56, pl. 12-see J. Toulet, L'école de reliure lyonnaise, p. 155, fig. 144 on Heures de Lyon, Lyons Library, ms. 5143), Lucien Gougy sale, n. 144, pl. 11 (the present one), P. Needham, Twelve centuries, p. 198-201 kept in the Pierpont Morgan Library, New York, PML 15433). The first example is tooled with the inscription "A Ma Dame Duperon" , the second has the monograms "IHS" and "MA" for Jesus and Maria and also the initials "FB". A second gilt-block binding in the Gougy sale (lot 64, pl. 6) also has the "FB" initials. They are attributed to one François Bigot of Rouen.
