The Book of Hours is a liturgical book, which was created to help church servants: readers and singers. The "Beautiful" and "Magnificent" Books of Hours, created in the 15th century, became monuments of book culture. Duke Jean of Berrias was at the origin of the unique editions, and at his monarch's will three brothers - artists Limburgi - took up the cause. "The Magnificent Hour Book" became a new word in culture. And the "Magnificent Books of Hours" was even more amazing: it realized the solemnity of the Old Testament stories within the "framework" of genre entertainment. The plots were drawn from the life of peasants and nobles, were modern, spiritually filled. The artists transformed the publication into a cultural masterpiece known throughout the world.
