Illuminated vellum manuscript fragment cut from a Bolognese copy of Gratian's Decretum, a collection of canon law compiled in the 12th century.

The dinner and seduction of a virgin; her betrothal to her ravisher.

These fragments came into the Royal Collection in a red morocco album labelled 'Drawings' some time between 1814 and 1854.

Adapted from 'Manuscript Fragments at Windsor Castle and the Entente Cordiale', by Jenny Stratford, in Interpreting and Collecting Fragments of Medieval Books, edited by Linda L. Brownrigg and Margaret M. Smith, pp. 114-136
