Rules of the Order of St Michael

by FOUQUET, Jean, Manuscript (Cod. Lat. 19819)

The picture on folio 1 shows Louis XI, King of France and the members of the St Michael Order established by the King in 1469 at Amboise. In the background on the wall a painting represents the battle of St Michael, in the foreground the dogs symbolize the fidelity. The coat-of-arms of the king can be seen between two angels.

The miniaturist of this page was probably Jean Fouquet.
