The '''{{lang|fr|Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry|italic=no}}''' ({{IPA-fr|tʁɛ ʁiʃz‿œʁ dy dyk də beʁi}}; {{lang-en|'''The Very Rich Hours of the Duke of Berry'''}}<ref>{{cite web|author1=Melissa Snell|title=Les Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry|url=https://www.thoughtco.com/les-tres-riches-heures-du-duc-de-berry-1788415|website=ThoughtCo.com|access-date=14 October 2017|quote=(literally: "the very rich hours of the duke of Berry")}}</ref>), or '''{{lang|fr|Très Riches Heures|italic=no}}''', is an [[illuminated manuscript]] that was created between {{circa|1412}} and 1416
When the three painters and their sponsor died in 1416, possibly victims of [[Plague (disease)|plague]], the manuscript was left unfinished. It was further embellished in the 1440s by an anonymous painter, who many art historians believe was [[Barthélemy d'Eyck]]. In 1485–1489, it was brought to its present state by the painter [[Jean Colombe]] on behalf of the [[Duke of Savoy]]. Acquired by the [[Henri d'Orléans, Duke of Aumale|Duc d'Aumale]] in 1856, the book is now MS 65 in the [[Musée Condé]], [[Chantilly, Oise|Chantilly]], France.
