Our consignor advises their father traveled Europe and Asia in the 1950's & 60's on business, often bringing home a piece of art of some kind as a souvenir of his travels. This is a most interesting piece apparently acquired at auction, a page from a book titled "Pontificale Romanum" published in 1543!!
Markings indicate this originally came from the collection of a Baron Jules d'Anethan who was the Prime Minister of Belgium during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and went on to chair the Belgian Senate, a high ranking politician of the 19th century. A fascinating piece of European Renaissance Period history in the book page itself, remarkably bright & colorful, two sided, and large sized measuring 9.5" x 13.5" in size. Imagine this document is now roughly 480 years old!!!! Worth the investment!
