Affixed nineteenth-century inscription reading: 'Magnificent sheet from a Missal bought at Palermo in 1803. Painted by Peter Peruginei the book contained two large paintings and eight smaller ones which with much regret cut from the binding in consequence of the fear of losing the book - it having been taken from the convent of St. Jerome. It is to be regretted that we possess but very incomplete accounts of the artists of the 13th and fourteenth centuries to whom we are indebted for the labours and often splendid performances which decorate the choral books and other illuminated manuscripts written in Italy during these periods. Sometimes it is true these illuminations were the work of monks who could do little more than evince their devotion to the saints by their prodigial use of gold and rich colours, still it is certain that the cloisters often produced Artists of great ability, and besides Italy as at all times produced professional illumanists and miniature painters of an Superior Order, this book could it have remained perfect by the Chevalier de Bronti - at 1000 Florins - and he remarked that whatever now remains to us of those performances merit our highest veneration as the monuments of a LOST ART - W.Y.O'.
