The image shows an illuminated manuscript page with a gold background. The left side features an arched frame containing two scenes. The main scene depicts a man sitting on a throne-like chair, wearing a blue top with a white collar and red and gold skirt; his hands are clasped in prayer. In the upper-left corner of the arch, a smaller scene shows a man in a brown robe slaying a giant with a slingshot; an angel flies above. The border on the right and bottom of the page contains florid blue curvilinear vines on a gold background with red, blue and green flowers. A brown and white rabbit is on the bottom. Black text in a white rectangle is below the seated man.
