Offices or prayer book written ca. 1600[?] by Iacobus Tarranus of Rome, who also copied an Officio della Beata Vergine Maria (see American Art Association, 20 December 1920, lot 567, the sale of a "Notable American Collection" (Oliver R. Barrett) to Sen. David A. Reed, and De Ricci, 495, n. 11). This manuscript may once have been part of a larger manuscript which included an office of the Virgin.

Span folios: ff. 1-80v. Support: Parchment. Layout: Bound too tightly to collate, but apparently in quires of 8. Sporadic catchwords from one page to the next. Ruled space, 80 x 53 mm; 12 long lines, no horizontal ruling visible; the written space enclosed on all sides by a narrow double rule in painted gold. Written in a humanistic hand, imitative of roman font.

Decoration: Initials, 3-line, in painted gold and decorated with pale red flourishes, set within double ruled gold square frames; 1-line initials in red or gold. Major divisions signalled by rubrics in gold square capitals; other rubrics in red or painted gold in the script of the text.

On f. 78v, in gold square capitals, "G.T.R.S.," evidently for "Giacomo Tarrani Romano Scriveva" which is written out in Latin in the lower corner of f. 79 in a small humanistic script, "Iacobus Tarranus Romanus Scribebat."
