| Condition: | The ink is partly scraped on f. 1r. Stains inside the volume, probably due to humidity and humidity probably caused the loss of colour in many historiated initials. In some instances, the colour stained the facing folio. Parchment of medium quality, with holes and tears usually external to the writing space. The trimming often cut off part of the penwork of the decorated initials. At f. 42va, a big initial near the top margin of the writing space had probably a remarkable vertical development. The external margin of f. 36 was cut off, though without damaging the writing space. |
