Breviary (Fragment)

Two leaves, probably from a breviary, parchment. The leaves are from the same work but do not appear to be consecutive. Main body text in two columns in a Gothic textualis rotunda in dark brown ink. With embellished single-line capitals in the same brown ink, alternating red and blue 2-line capitals, red rubrics, red and blue initial words and two large historiated initials. The leaves have been cut for use as binding fragments with loss of text from the bottom and one side of both leaves. The item has been photographed as a whole, as well as the inner and outer sides of the fold in folio 2
