Book of Hours, Use of Paris (Susanna Hours) Paris, ca. 1505–20; illuminator: workshop of the Master of Petrarch’s Triumphs Philadelphia Museum of Art, 1945-65-9 The iconographic cycle in this unique French Book of Hours features the story of Susanna and the Elders, adapted from chapter 13 of the apocryphal Book of Daniel. Each of the miniatures is accompanied by a set of five rhyming AABBA verses in French, consisting of unique paraphrased translations of the biblical text. The style of the illuminations is close to that of the so-called Master of Petrarch’s Triumphs (act. ca. 1499–ca. 1514)
