(Yolande of Aragon, niece by marriage of Jean de Berry,
wife of Louis II, King of Sicily and duc d'Anjou; ordered
a book of hours from her court painters, probably intended
for her eldest son Louis, heir to Duchy of Anjou and
Kingdom of Sicily after death of Louis II in 1417) p. 6,
etc. (Heures de Rohan, as they were later to be called;
one of the works done by the Rohan Master for the family
of Anjou; made shortly after 1416, probably about 1418-
1425; name derives from the coats of arms of Rohan, which
were a later addition; these hours are, by rights, Heures
d'Anjou; [liturgy] follows the Use of Paris, not that of
Angers, but the precise use was of secondary importance
for a family which divided its time between Paris and its
estates in the provinces; the Rohan Master probably worked
in Paris during formative years, then his atelier de Rohan
must have moved to Angers)

Introduction I / by Millard Meiss, p. 9, etc. (Grandes
heures de Rohan; Rohan hours; work done after 1415-1416;
between 1419 and 1427, the years when evidence of style
indicates that the Rohan hours and the manuscripts most
closely related to it were illuminated; connections of the
Rohan hours and similarly late manuscripts by the Rohan
workshop with the Duchesse Yolande of Anjou, wife of Duke
Louis II, nephew of [Jean] Duke of Berry; Jean Porcher
proposed that Yolande invited the Rohan Master to Angers;
the Rohan Master perhaps worked in Angers and for a time
between 1423 and 1427 in Bourges; prayers in the Rohan
hours are for the use of Paris, from which may infer only
that the original owner was attached by residence or
sentiment to the Parisian region; prayers are in masculine
form; work might have been made for Charles, Dauphin of
France and Duke of Berry, from October 1422 King of
France; scholars are agreed that the Rohan Master himself
painted only a small number of the miniatures in the
Grandes heures) Introduction II / by Marcel Thomas, p. 19,
etc. (traditionally known as Grandes heures de Rohan; date
remains very uncertain; certain indications might permit
us to assign it to a date slightly prior to 1425-1430;
first third of the 15th century; each marginal painting
accompanied by a legend in Old French; likely that Yolande
of Aragon commissioned the work; must have intended to
present it to some important member of her family, rather
than keep it for herself, since the prayers are worded in
the masculine form; often thought for one of her two sons,
Louis or René; could just as well have been made for
Charles, Dauphin of France and Duke of Berry, from October
1422 Charles VII, King of France; the arms of the Rohan
family have been superimposed, at an undetermined date,
upon the original illumination; passed into the hands of
one of the members of the House of Rohan, whose name
became irrevocably attached to the manuscript, even though
the designation Hours of Yolande of Aragon might seem more
appropriate today)
670 Oxford art online, 11 June 2014:|bMaster of the Rohan
Hours (Rohan Hours (Grandes Heures de Rohan, c. 1430-33;
Paris, Bib. N., MS. lat. 9471), which contains the arms of
the Rohan Family on several pages, although it is not
certain that these arms are original; several scholars,
including Avril, associate the production of the Rohan
Hours with the Angevin court and with Yolande of Aragon,
wife of Louis II, Duke of Anjou; it is thought that
Yolande may have commissioned the Rohan Hours in 1431 to
celebrate the marriage of Charles of Anjou, Comte du Maine,
to a daughter of Alain IX de Rohan (the marriage, however,
never took place); the Master was involved in the Rohan
hours during the period of the climax of his career;
scholarly opinion favours Angers and the Angevin court as
the centre for these activities, although Meiss (1974)
suggested Bourges; Meiss also indicated an earlier date,
in the 1420s, for the Master's mature period; but Avril
argued for 1430-40, on the grounds that the Hours of René
of Anjou are dated by internal heraldic and historical
evidence to 1435-6)
