The Hours of Philip the Bold

Other artists of the second campaign

Artists

Among the other illuminators who contributed to the second campaign are: a late member of the large group of artists active in Bruges c. 1420-1450 and known as the Masters of the Gold Scrolls, who provided the image of Pentecost (fol. 190r); the artist responsible for the miniature of St Adrian (fol. 237r); and the Dutch artist who painted the miniature of St Mary Magdalene, probably excised from another manuscript before it was pasted onto fol. 254v.

This 15th-century miniature was painted by one of the numerous artists who contributed to the second campaign. The patron saint of metalworkers is shown in full armour, standing on a lion, and holding a sword and a hammer resting on his anvil.
