jothelibrarian: Pretty medieval manuscript of the day shows Princesse Yolanda of Savoy receiving a copy of Guillaime Fichet’s Rhetorica from the author. I love the hats! The manuscript can be viewed on the Virtual Manuscript Library of Switzerland. A detailed description of the manuscript can be found here (PDF). Image source: Cologny, Fondation Martin Bodmer, Cod.
