Cutting from a choir book
A manuscript leaf cutting from a choir book, painted by Franco dei Russi, held by the J. Paul Getty Museum, likely made for liturgical use in a religious house. The picture shows the Adoration of the Magi in a bright gold-leaf and tempera scene, with a stable, kneeling kings, a red-robed attendant, and a caravan winding through hills toward a walled city, offering ornate border ideas and rich jewel-toned palettes for designers.
