l saggio affronta lo studio del Salterio-Libro d’Ore della regina Giovanna I d’Angiò, il più antico libro devozionale eseguito a Napoli nel XIV secolo e tra i primi prodotti nella penisola italiana. L’opera è analizzata sia dal punto di vista stilistico, con l’individuazione delle due botteghe responsabili della sua illustrazione, che iconografico. Il complesso progetto testuale e iconografico viene indagato in relazione alla sua destinazione reale e ai suoi modelli parigini, prodotti per committenze femminili della casa regnante francese, giunti a Napoli attraverso la madre della regina, Maria di Valois.
