Title: Horae, Use of Rome. Hore divine virginis Marie, secundum usum Romanum, 1531
Author: Yolande Bonhomme
Publisher: Parisiis, Opera & impensis yolande bōhōme vidue spectabilis viri Thielmani keruer
Condition: Good

An extremely scarce early 16th century Book of Hours, from the workshop of Yolande Bonhomme. Yolande was one of several significantly important woman printers in 16th century Paris, and a phenomenally successful one. She was also the first woman to also print an edition of the Bible in 1526. When fellow printer and husband Thielmann Kerver passed away in 1522, she assumed control of the printing shop. Just like Thielmann, Yolande also specialized in illustrated Books of Hours.

This Book of Hours, printed on paper, is an extremely scarce example of one of Bonhomme’s later productions. The colophon signs the work as "Work and Expenses of Yolande Buhome, the Handsome Widow of her Husband, Thielmani Keruer ".

This Book of Hours is printed in red and black with Gothic font, profusely illustrated throughout with border woodcuts and full-page woodcuts. There are 39 full-page woodcuts, and 24 smaller woodcuts. There are woodcut figures and woodcut decorations in the margins of any page which does not include a full-page woodcut, including a 33-page series of the grim Dance of Death, with two figures to each page.

Worldcat records three existing copies of this edition in libraries.

This copy brings together the signature leaves C-D 8, E 6, F-P 8, Q 6 (except Q2), R4. The rest are lacking.

One finely bound volume in 12mo, 111 of 132 leaves

This volume is in good shape, with some rubbing and wear to the binding, and a bit of leather peeling from the rear board. The lower hinges are split. There are small tears to the upper right of the first five leaves, with very minor letter loss. There is some wear to the upper margins and upper edges of the first 21 leaves of the volume. There is some staining to the first few leaves, with very little staining or foxing throughout the rest of the volume.
