Taymouth Hours
The Taymouth Hours (British Library, Yates Thompson MS 13) is an illuminated Book of Hours produced in England in about 1325–35. It is named after Taymouth Castle where it was kept after being acquired by an earl of Breadalbane by the 17th or 18th century.
Most pages have a "bas-de-page" illustration, often accompanied by a caption in Anglo Norman French or Latin. A few have bilingual captions that include Middle English. The illustrations include both sacred and secular scenes. Picture-
