There is an incomplete manuscript to delineate the phases of decoration. the decoration phase started after the writing of the text. The copyist left instructions to the illuminator, dissimulated on the margins. Decoration started with rubrics and the initials. When all the rubrics and the initials were finished, illustrations and ornaments started. The procedure for manuscript illumination was similar to pictorial work.

Manuscript Illumination with All Saints in an Initial V, from an Antiphonary, Attributed to Cosmè Tura (Cosimo di Domenico di Bonaventura) (Italian, Ferrara ca. 1433–1495 Ferrara), Tempera, ink, and gold on parchment, Italian

Originating in Ghent or Bruges, Flanders, in the early sixteenth century, this Dominican Book of Hours focuses on the Passion of Christ and the Corpus Christi. This book masquerades as a purely authentic medieval manuscript, when in fact it is a modern and medieval hybrid. The majority of the manuscript was made ca. 1500, but it had remained unfinished. Its nineteenth-century owner, John Boykett Jarman, commissioned English illustrator William Caleb Wing to "finish" the manuscript ca. 1850. Known for his manuscript illumination skills, Wing recreated imagery typical of a fifteenth- to sixteenth-century Flemish Book of Hours. Henry Walters was aware that the manuscript was partially painted in the nineteenth century when he purchased it, as the manuscript is noted as a "forgery" in the James C. Anderson inventory, December 7th, 1913. Whether pages and images are original or nineteenth century has been indicated both within the individual text parts as well as within the image cataloging.

Antiphonary

Der Kodex entstammt der Werkstatt von Petrus Alamire (ca. 1470 – nach 1534), der als Musikschreiber für den burgundisch-habsburgischen Hof arbeitete. Daneben war er auch als Sänger, Musikalienhändler, Kurier und sogar als Geheimagent für den englischen König tätig. Das Chorbuch Mus.ms. F enthält sieben vierstimmige Messen. Die Randleisten sind mit reizvollen Blumen- und Tiermotiven koloriert. Alle Stimmen zeigen prächtige Initialen oder Stimmbuchstaben, die aus grotesken Männerköpfen mit Blumen- und Schneckenhüten gebildet sind, wie sie für die Musikhandschriften aus der Werkstatt des Petrus Alamire charakteristisch sind. // Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, Musikabteilung, 2016
