Manuscript Summary:
Manuscript Summary
Purchased at auction in 2023, this volume, which for a long time remained in private hands, adds to the number of works known to have been commissioned by the bishop of the diocese of Basel, Jean de Venningen (1458-1479). This is a pontifical that belongs to the same group of liturgical manuscripts as a missal-pontifical (ms. 1) and two other pontificals (mss. 2 and 3), produced around 1462-1463 and conserved in the ancient collection of the Bibliothèque cantonale jurassienne. This pontifical shares some blessings with each of the three others. Copied by a single scribe, it is embellished with a dozen ornate or historiated initials similar to those of other manuscripts in this group, attributed to a certain Hans, parish priest of Hésingue, on the basis of the illuminator’s name appearing in the register of the bishop’s expenses (Gamper/Jurot 1999).
