"Les Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry" is an illuminated manuscript commissioned by John, Duke of Berry, and created by the Limbourg brothers, Paul, Herman, and Jean, between 1412 and 1416. The manuscript is considered one of the most important examples of late medieval French Gothic manuscript illumination and is often referred to as the "king of illuminated manuscripts." The "June" page is one of the most celebrated folios in this manuscript, showcasing the artistic brilliance and intricate detail characteristic of the Limbourg brothers' work.

The "June" folio depicts a vibrant scene of agricultural activity, reflecting the seasonal labor typical of the month. In the foreground, peasants are shown shearing sheep, a task associated with the early summer months. The meticulous attention to detail in the depiction of the figures, their clothing, and the tools they use provides a vivid snapshot of medieval rural life. The background features the Château de Saumur, one of the Duke's many residences, rendered with remarkable architectural precision and set against a lush, verdant landscape.

The Limbourg brothers employed a rich palette of colors and fine brushwork to achieve a sense of depth and realism. The use of gold leaf and intricate patterns further enhances the luxurious quality of the manuscript. The "June" folio, like the other calendar pages in "Les Très Riches Heures," not only serves as a functional calendar but also as a testament to the opulence and sophistication of the Duke's court.

"Les Très Riches Heures" is housed in the Musée Condé in Chantilly, France, and remains a pivotal work in the study of medieval art. The "June" page, in particular, exemplifies the Limbourg brothers' mastery of the International Gothic style and their ability to blend naturalism with decorative elegance.
