Description
The bestiary is on folios 167r-199r.
The Bestiary is very well illustrated. The pictures are larger than those in Gonville and Caius College Library, MS 372/621. The grounds red and blue (one gold) ornamented with gold dots or white patterns. Frames of pink and blue (alternate sides) and square gold corners. - [James catalog]
...long given as belonging to the Second family, it is rather an atypical manuscript, part of which corresponds to the Transition family. - [Kuhry]
