All pages printed in red and black with intricate typographical border. Printed in two columns, with numerous picturial initioals. , . BINDING : Full red-brown morocco, smooth spine with engraved silver title., both covers decrated with important silver decoration: frontcover ''the last supper'' ; backcover ''nativity scene'', two working silver clasps ; corners with large silver triangle protections (9cm). All silver decorations with the silver marking ''J)(D'' (unidentified, probably Liège) All edges gilt. With end papers in red colored silk. Fine silver binding in fine condition with hardly any traces of use,(the outer joints are expertly restored). Interior fine and without stains or foxing. which is rare because these missals were in daily use during mass service in the Roman Catholic church. The missal, always in Latin, was the most important book in the Roman catholic liturgy and served during mass (Eucharist celebration). It was made universal for the Church at the Council of Trent (1545-1563) and virtually made redundant at the Second Vatican Council in the 1960's. Finely preserved missal in a spectacular and wel preserved silver bindin."
SILVER BINDING - Richard BAXTER ( author ) - Harriet HAMILTON ( provenance ) :

" London, George Virtue, 1846, in-8°, 21,5 x 13,5 cm, (12)nn pp (title, engraved portait, manuscript ex-libris leaves) + 672 pp. Binding ; Silver binding over black velvet with large silver supra libro with the initials HH (130 x 80 mm), silver decoration and silver title label on spine. Both covers completely bordered with an elaborate silver frame with two large clasps. All edges gilt and decorated with a blindtooled pattern. The binding is in very good shape. Only a tiny fragment of one of the spine ornaments is missing. Provenance; Bound before the title are two vellum paper leaves containing quotes from the bible and the opening sentence ; '' Harriet Hamilton, her book, june 1854''. Also the initials HH on the front cover refer to Harriet Hamilton. Most probably (*) this book belonged to Lady Harriet Hamilton (*6.7.1834 , +23.4.1913) daughter of James Hamilton 1st Duke of Abercom. She is depicted as a baby in a famous painting by Landeer. There exists a picture by Roger Fenton of her which would have been taken during the time when she purchased this book ; 12 May 1854 ; Lady Harriet Hamilton as Mary Queen of Scots, for Countess Walewska's Ball. In this picture she is portrayed with one book on her lap and two books on a nearby table (Royal Collection RCIN 2906578). Fenton depicted her also as Lady Jane Grey in the same year, in a similar pose, also surrounded by books (San Francisco AMICA library ID FASF.6065). (*)We can not ascribe this book with absolute certainty to the library of Lady Harriet Hamilton because several persons with her name lived in England around 1854. However the luxurious execution of the binding which would have been very expensive, together with the fact that she was in her prime in 1854 and socially very active makes her the most likely candidate."

According to mediaeval theologians, faith is a deadly serious business. Humour and virtue are irreconcilable, because laughter is uncontrollable and escapes the control of reason. A modest smile is permitted. But laughing loudly, grinning and grimacing: these are the playing field of the devil - just as pernicious as other uncontrollable urges, such as physical love or the addiction of the gambler. That is the domain of the peasant or fool. In the late Middle Ages, every right-thinking town-dweller knew the difference between the peasant and the fool. Peasants are innocently gullible, primitive, throwing themselves into feasting, gorging, drinking and sex. The peasant is the antithesis of the cultivated town-dweller, who fastidiously controls his urges - and who therefore above all must not laugh too loudly. Only during innocent children's parties or Shrove Tuesday celebrations is it permitted for urban partygoers to show their other side, their 'underbelly'. The intoxicating atmosphere allows them to temporarily deny the unpleasant aspects of their day-to-day existence. In contrast to the peasant, the fool also escapes the existing order. The fool holds up a mirror to the self-declared wise citizens, because 'the fool reveals the truth through laughter', even though it may be hidden between piss and shit, sex and snot. It is for precisely this reason that Erasmus, in his 'In Praise of Folly' writes not as himself but through the persona of Folly, a broad back behind which the wise person can hide when he denounces social problems. Laughter thus alters the world and contributes to social change, a process of cultivation. In this context, the fool and irony became important motifs in mediaeval art, especially in the Low Countries. This original art book is illustrated with dozens of top-quality works by Flemish masters from worldwide collections. With an introduction by Dr. Katharina Van Cauteren, art historian and chief of staff at The Phoebus Foundation. Larry Silver is Professor of Art History at the University of Pennsylvania. In 2006 he published the monograph Hieronymus Bosch. Silver is renowned worldwide as one of the most important art historians of our age.
