ResumoIn the Hours of Jeanne d'Evreux, Pucelle took inspiration not only from Duccio's Maestà, as is well known, but also from Giovanni Pisano's pulpit in S. Andrea, Pistoia. Here too the borrowings are selective and complex, and offer fresh insight into the range of qualities Pucelle esteemed in trecento art. Interest in sculptural form helps to explain his turn to a grisaille painting technique. It is briefly suggested that aspects of the Duc de Berri's patronage should be related to his appreciation of the roots of Pucelle's innovative art in the monumental art forms of both sculpture and panel painting.
