Bedford Master

The Master of Bedford was a French miniaturist and manuscript illustrator.

This master of the chapbook worked in Paris from 1405-1435 and is considered one of the most important 15th-century illuminators. He ran an influential workshop in Paris. The artist received his name after his work on two books, which he decorated with illustrations for John Lancaster, Duke of Bedford. One of these, The Bedford Hours, is considered one of the most outstanding illuminated manuscripts extant from the medieval period, with numerous illustrations and extensive decoration, including more than 1,200 decorative medallions that appear in the margins of each page.
