And who painted your signature image?
Titled:
The Right Hand of God Protecting the Faithful against Demons
Jean Fouquet
ca. 1452-1460
Manuscript illumination
Information provided by the Metropolitan Museum, New York:
Jean Fouquet (French [Tours], ca. 1415/20–1478/81)
Tempera and gold leaf on parchment; 7 5/8 x 5 3/4 in. (19.4 x 14.6 cm)
Robert Lehman Collection, 1975 (1975.1.2490)
The "Book of Hours of Etienne Chevalier" is one of the most famous and lavishly illuminated manuscripts of the fifteenth century. It was painted for the treasurer of France by Jean Fouquet, court artist to kings Charles VII and Louis XI, who worked not only as a miniaturist but also as a panel painter and scenery designer. The Lehman miniature decorates the page that contains the opening words of the evening prayer (vespers) for the Hours of the Holy Spirit. It shows the faithful standing in the foreground on a terrace, looking up at the hand of God, as demons flee to the left and right. The subject is highly unusual, as is the topographically accurate depiction of medieval Paris, in which the cathedral of Notre-Dame, the spire of Saint-Chapelle, the Pont Saint-Michel, and other monuments of the Île de la Cité (including the Hôtel de Nesle, where the figures stand) are immediately recognizable.
Provenance/Ownership History: Etienne Chevalier (ca. 1410–1474); Nicolas Chevalier, baron of Crissé (1562–1630); his nephew by marriage, the seigneur of Longeuil; Louis Fenoulhet, Shoreham, Sussex, England; sale, Sotheby's, London, England 18 December 1946, lot 568; acquired by Robert Lehman in 1946.
Inscriptions: [under the miniature is the opening line of the prayer at Vespers of the Holy Spirit]: Deus in adiutorium meum intende domine ad adiutum.
