The Grimani Breviary


The Grimani Breviary
The original can never leave Venice and is housed in the Library of Saint Mark. The Levenger version is linen-and-gold-bound and comes in a matching slipcase. It has 110 color plates from the original Breviary with extensive scholarly commentary. The Breviary contains a foreword by Ross King, a noted author and art historian. There are 2,000 copies available and it sells for $150.
