1 leaf of a Psalterium.

Folio (38,5 x 23 cm): 20 ll., on vellum, printed in red and black (sl. soiled, bl. margins trimmed without loss of text).

An elegant folio, with a decorative woodcut initial, from Psalm 30, attributed to the workshop of Peter Schoeffer, inventor with Johann Gutenberg of modern typography. This leaf is close to the "Psalterium Benedictinum cum canticis et hymnis" printed by Schoeffer in 1490 (14 copies known, only 4 complete). No copy of a psalter printed by Schoeffer is held in Belgium.
