Summary Paperblanks Spinola Hours Ancient Illumination is an Ultra Flexis journal inspired by a richly illuminated 16th-century Flemish manuscript. This larger 6.75 x 8.75 inch journal is available with lined or blank pages and features 176 pages of smooth 100 gsm paper, an elastic band closure and a back cover pouch.

Product Story The design is based on the Spinola Hours, an illuminated manuscript created in Belgium around 1510–1520. Known for its naturalistic detail and richly decorated pages, the manuscript shows how a personal prayer book could also become an extraordinary work of visual art.

A book of hours typically includes a calendar of Church holidays, prayers, hymns, readings and devotional texts. The Spinola Hours goes further with additional weekday offices and masses, giving its illuminators even more room for intricate borders, color and layered detail. Paperblanks reproduces one of those pages here as part of its collaboration with the J. Paul Getty Museum.

What makes this special?

  • Larger writing format: The Ultra size gives you generous page space for journaling, notes, planning and longer writing sessions.
  • Getty Museum collaboration: The design is based on a page from the Spinola Hours, a celebrated Flemish illuminated manuscript in the J. Paul Getty Museum collection.
  • Choice of page style: Choose lined pages for writing or blank pages for sketching, visual notes and open-ended use.
  • Flexible softcover: The Flexis cover and spine feel comfortable in hand while keeping the journal lighter than a traditional hardcover.
  • Open-flat binding: Smyth-sewn binding helps the journal lay flat, making it easier to write across the page.
  • Useful finishing details: An elastic band closure, ribbon marker and back cover pouch add practical function for everyday notes and journaling.
