| General illustration: | Listed in Lathuillère 1966, 56 and Verbeke 1987, 246-48. Pächt 1966, 28 assignes the illustration at f. A to the Master of the Roman de la Rose and the others to the Master of Edward IV. Verbeke 1987, 248-49 prefers to make reference only to the entourage of Edward IV. |
| General decoration: | Cf. Verbeke 1987, 246 ("encadrement dans le style dit ganto-brugeois") and 248-49. |
| Evidence of readership: | |
| Foliations description: | Medieval foliation in roman numerals, referring to two distinct volumes. The modern foliation in arab numerals 1 to 17 does not correspond to the original order of the folios, re-established by Lathuillère 1966, 57 and marked by letters of the alphabet (A to Q) in Verbeke 1987, 246-247. For sake of clarity, we made reference to the latter foliation, which reflects the original order of the folios. |
