Modern illumination

Manuscript on parchment of a portion of a single leaf intended to represent a fragment of a large noted service book. On the recto, historiated initial and beginning of a hymn. Verso blank. The fragment is an imitation of a 15th-century antiphonal (?): each word is a unit, not stretched to fit the rhythm of the chant; the colors are inaccurate and unmodulated; the gold is applied in too high relief; the insect in the margin is an anachronistic insertion; there is no text on the verso; and the parchment has been varnished
