Leaf from a Psalter and Prayerbook: Ornamental Border with Pea Vines and a Girl Kneading Bread (recto)
Medieval-style illuminated manuscript page with gold background, featuring black handwritten text in a central rectangle. The border consists of green pea vines with pods on the right and left sides, and multicolored flowers and leaves on the bottom. The bottom-right corner depicts a girl in a white dress kneading bread on a table with a wooden rolling pin in her right hand. The girl stands on green ground and has a basket at her feet. The page has a thin black border around the gold background. The text is organized in paragraphs separated by colorful squares. The squares are blue, gold, red, and gold again, from top to bottom. The text is written in a language that appears to be Latin. The girl's hair is pulled back. The rolling pin is raised above her head. The table has a white bowl on it. The basket is wicker. The flowers in the border are red and blue. The leaves are green.
