Notes

• Initial D with Christ calling Sts. Peter and Andrew
   
• This initial begins the Introit for the Vigil of St. Andrew (Nov. 29), 'Dominus secus mare galilee vidit duos fratres Petri et Andream....' (The Lord, walking along the sea of Galilee, saw the two brothers Peter and Andrew). This initial has been attributed to the Florentine illuminator Bartolomeo d'Antonio Varnucci, who was active from ca. 1440 to his death in 1479.
   
• This image shows the reverse of a leaf with an historiated initial from a gradual. This side of the leaf, the true verso, continues the Introit for the feast of Sts. Peter and Andrew, which begins on the front.
