MAESTRO DELLA MATRICOLA DEI SARTI Historiated initial M from an antiphonary with the Annunciation. Vellum. Perugia, ca. 1315-20. 145 x 120 mm. Provenance: - London, Christie's June 1995. - acquired by the current owner at the above auction. Bibliography: - Friedrich G. Zeileis, Più ridon le carte (3.ed.), Rauris 2014, p. 278. Cited literature and further reading: - Alessandro Galli, in: Miklòs Boskovits (ed) Miniature a Brera 1100-1422, Milan 1997, pp. 180-185. - Marina Subbioni, La miniatura Perugina del Trecento, Perugia 2003, pp. 39 ff. This historiated initial M with its expressive interpretation of the Annunciation opens the first response to the first nocturn of the corresponding feast. In this historiated initial, the link to the Umbrian school of illumination, in particular that of Perugia, was correctly identified when it was sold at auction twenty years ago. However, a more precise attribution to a specific master is still lacking.
