"An unknown Dominican friar probably commissioned this work: a friar next to a speech scroll inscribed: 'Ore feres bien e nettement car mustre serra a riche gent' ('Now do it well and thoroughly, for it will be shown to important people'), with an artist whose speech scroll is inscribed: "Si frai voyre e Deux me doynt vivere Nonkes ne veyses un autretel livere' ('Indeed, I certainly will, if God lets me live, never will you see another such book') (f. 1r)."
