Manuscript note: Both the script and the decoration are close in style to the Capucins’ Bible (Paris, BnF, mss lat. 16743-46) and the Manerius Bible (Paris, Bibliothèque de Ste-Geneviève mss 8-10), both made probably in Champagne, perhaps in Troyes (Cahn 1996, II, pp. 96-98, no. 79, and pp. 99-102, no. 81).
