| Provenance |
Queen Isabeau of Bavaria (b. 1371, d. 1435), married king Charles VI of France in 1385, manuscript produced for her under the supervision of Christine de Pizan (b. c. 1364, d. c. 1430): presentation miniature (f. 3), dedicatory poem (ff. 3r-v), between 1413 and 1414: Ballade 9 (Encore aultres balades) refers to Jean de Bourbon's 'hault voyage' identified with the re-cupture of Subise in 1413 (see Laidlaw 2005). Probably presented to the queen in as a New Year's gift inJanuary 1414.
John [John of Lancaster], duke of Bedford (b. 1389, d.1435), regent of France and prince, probably purchased by him with the entire library of Charles V after Charles VI's death.
Jacquetta, daughter of Pierre de Luxemburg, Count of St Pol, and second wife of John of Lancaster, between 1433 and 1472: inscribed 'Jaquete/Jaquette' (ff. 1, 51v, 52v, and in the miniature on f. 115v); and with her motto 'sur tous autres' (ff. 1 and 387).
Anthony Woodville, Baron Scales and second Earl Rivers (between 1442 and 1483), eldest son of Jacquetta through her second marriage (?1437) to Richard Woodville (d. 1469): inscribed with his motto 'Nulle la vault ariviers' (f. 1).
Louis de Bruges, sieur de la Gruthuyse , Earl of Winchester, October 1472, (d. 1492): inscribed with his motto and his name 'Plus est en vous. Gruthuse' (f. 1).
Henry Cavendish (b. 1630, d. 1691), second Duke of Newcastle-upon-Tyne: inscribed 'Henry Duke of Newcastle his booke 1676' (f. 1).
The Harley Collection, formed by Robert Harley (b. 1661, d. 1724), 1st earl of Oxford and Mortimer, politician, and Edward Harley (b. 1689, d. 1741), 2nd earl of Oxford and Mortimer, book collector and patron of the arts. Probably acquired by Edward Harley through marriage: Henrietta Cavendish-Holles, grand-daughter of Henry Cavendish, married Edward, second Earl of Oxford, in 1713. The Cavendish-Holles Library at Welbeck passed to Edward Harley by 1725, following the death of Henrietta's mother, Lady Margaret Cavendish, Duchess of Devonshire, on 24 December 1716. Certainly in the collection of Edward Harley by the time of his death in 1741: old Harley press-mark '128. C. 12' (f.1).
Edward Harley bequeathed the library to his widow, Henrietta Cavendish, née Holles (b. 1694, d. 1755) during her lifetime and thereafter to their daughter, Margaret Cavendish Bentinck (b. 1715, d. 1785), duchess of Portland; the manuscripts were sold by the Countess and the Duchess in 1753 to the nation for £10,000 (a fraction of their contemporary value) under the Act of Parliament that also established the British Museum; the Harley manuscripts form one of the foundation collections of the British Library. |
