De Bar Hours, W.93, Northeast France (Lorraine), ca. 1310, Walters Art Museum, Baltimore

Nearly a century after its founding, the Walters Art Museum continues to be a place of remarkable discovery, with tantalizingly strange objects haunting the storage shelves. Join Dr. Lynley Anne Herbert, Curator of Rare Books and Manuscripts & Curatorial Chair, and Dr. Christine Sciacca, Curator of European Art, 300-1400 CE, as they explore two mysterious medieval oddities: a bronze figure of unknown origin possibly representing a crusader, and a lace-cut manuscript with no known precedent.
