The Met Store Journals & Notebooks*The Met Cloisters Garden Softcover Journal

Thoughtful gifts for art lovers.

The lush botanical print decorating the cover of this journal unites a selection of plant studies (ca. 1510–1515) by the Master of Claude de France, whose spectacular book at The Met Cloisters belongs to what’s been called “the last flowering” of northern European manuscript illumination in the medieval tradition. The French artist immortalized garden variety flora, from the blackberry to the marigold, in witness to their beauty. Each of the flowers in this magnificent manuscript can be found in the gardens at The Cloisters.
