'Teriade had always found room for selections from French illuminated manuscripts in Verve's early 'miscellaneous or general issues.' With Verve No. 7 this predilection was in full flood. The Calendar from Les Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry inaugurated a series devoted exclusively to illuminated texts from the thirteenth fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Verve Nos. 7 9 10 11 12 14/15 16 and 23--which spanned a nine-year period--attest to the importance Teriade attached to this art form.' Michel Antonioz VERVE: The Ultimate Review of Art and Literature 121. In an introductory essay Teriade himself relays the great difficulty in attempting to reproduce the paintings: 'There are no more exquisite paintings in the world than those contained in this manuscript and their colors are so delicate that faithful reproduction seemed mpossible by means of mechanical processes using chemical tones . The purit of the manuscript's colors as Robert Draeger discovered defied the sensitive emulsions of photographic plates. Only after patient effort could the minute drawing and transparent colors be reconstituted. The result achieved demanded extraordinary crafstmanship and may well mark a date in the history of colored reproduction. For the first time the Calendar of Les Tres Riches Heures now belongs to the public in its entegrality and in the exact dimensions of its original paintings.' Each of the calendar months depict in great detail a scene from the agricultural life of 15th century France-- 'No document exists which shows more fully and accurately the life of Medieval France: in it are expressed the elegance the refinement and the vigor of the France of the past.'.
