Prayer book for Countess Anna von Montfort-Wasserburg-Rothenfels

This richly illustrated parchment manuscript, a German-language private prayer book, was produced in 1489 in the Lake Constance area. The patron, identified as “H.M.” (78v) is most likely Hugo XV. zu Rothenfels und Wasserburg (ca. 1460-1519), his wife, Countess Anna von Montfort-Wasserburg-Rothenfels (ca. 1470-1531) is the addressee and owner, and she also gives the manuscript its current name. In 1977, the manuscript came to the University Library from the estate of the Basel collector August Meyer (1903-1977). In 2024, the manuscript was extensively restored and rebound. (stu)
