Painting Description
"John, Duke of Berry on His Knees between St. Andrew and St. John" is an illuminated miniature from the "Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry," one of the most famous and luxurious illuminated manuscripts of the 15th century. The Très Riches Heures was commissioned by John, Duke of Berry, and the work is attributed to the Limbourg brothers—Paul, Herman, and Jean—and later artists, including Jacquemart de Hesdin, who is believed to have contributed to the manuscript after the Limbourg brothers' deaths.
This particular miniature is notable for its depiction of the patron, John, Duke of Berry, in a devotional pose, kneeling between the figures of St. Andrew, his patron saint, and St. John the Evangelist. The Duke is shown in a richly detailed interior setting, which reflects the opulence of his court and his renowned taste for art and luxury. The figures are rendered with a high degree of naturalism and detail, characteristic of the International Gothic style that flourished in courts across Europe at the end of the 14th and beginning of the 15th centuries.
The miniature serves both as a devotional image and a portrait of the Duke, embodying the personal piety and the status of its patron. The inclusion of the saints reflects the Duke's spiritual aspirations and his desire for intercession. The Très Riches Heures, as a whole, is a testament to the artistic innovation of the period and the cultural ambitions of the European nobility.
The manuscript is held in the collection of the Musée Condé, Chantilly, France, and remains one of the most studied and celebrated works from the period of the late Middle Ages. The "John, Duke of Berry on His Knees between St. Andrew and St. John" miniature is a key component of this masterpiece, offering insight into the religious life, artistic patronage, and personal devotion of one of the most significant art patrons of the medieval era.
