@aaronm @bookhistodons @medievodons Oh, there's an imaginary armorial of famous women at the end of the Lull! So interesting! Some jewish ones too... I wonder what the source was. https://blogs.bl.uk/digitisedmanuscripts/2019/10/the-nine-worthy-women.html

@aaronm @bookhistodons @medievodons Heroic effort on the alt-text. Now I’m trying to figure out why one of the heads doesn’t have a crown. The idea that it’s an allegory for social inequality seems far-fetched. 😀
