Image description

fol. 151r-204r: Office of the Dead. This miniature begins the Office of the Dead, which consisted of prayers to aid souls through Purgatory. The subject of the miniature, the Three Living and the Three Dead, is a reminder that death comes to all. Here, three young men defend themselves against three corpses that represent death. According to the popular legend, the corpses say to the men: "We were once as you are now, and what we are, you soon will be."
