It represents the Tree of Jesse, with the genealogy of the Virgin Mary, an illustration usually associated with the first two hours (matins and laudes) of the “Hours of the Virgin”, central nucleus of all the “Book of Hours”. On the verso, text in Latin framed by five stripes, the sides with a criblé background.
