JOSEPH AND HIS BRETHREN, historiated initial "C", on a leaf from an ILLUMINATED MANUSCRIPT CHOIR BOOK ON VELLUM [Bologna or Emilia-Romagna, circa 1340] Leaf 480x335mm, initial 103x84mm, grey with white tracery on burnished gold ground, with foliate extensions in full colours. Joseph carrying a stick facing his four brothers, in front of three trees against a blue background. Text in large brown gothic textura, rubrics in red, 7 lines of music in square notation on red four-line staves, also 7 lines on verso. The miniature illustrates the antiphon for the second nocturn of Epiphany ' Cidentes ioseph a longelo quebantur mutuo fratres '. This may possibly be attributed to Pseudo-Niccolo, known as the 'Illustratore' who was active in Bologna in the second quarter of the 14th century; or to Paolo Seraphino who worked in a similar idiom
