This is a register from the guild of book producers and merchants in 15th-century Bruges, showing a list of craftspeople who made books of hours.
One quarter of the guild members between 1455 and 1500 were women!

Hi old friends from the T-verse - I'm now joining you all in the Blue Sky. Expect to do most of my posting here from now. Had a nice Christmas gift card for an indy bookshop in Raleigh NC, so purchased a copy of Adam's book there today. (I like the jacket of the UK edition better, but still . . . )
