The Calendar of Albrecht Glockendon is a small, illuminated manuscript created in 1526 in Nuremberg by Albrecht Glockendon the Younger, who came from a famed family of artists active in Franconia. Each pair of facing pages of the twenty-four-page perpetual calendar opens with a colorful miniature of the labor of the month, which includes the appropriate zodiac sign, followed by a listing of Christian feast days. The calendar is accompanied by astrological and medical reference guides, including the zodiac man and a table for calculating the dates of Christian moveable feasts.
