They all share a startling mix of a notably fine calligraphic hand with colourful and eclectic illumination with numerous animals and fish. The artist seems to have known Florentine models, however, he was clearly not part of the mainstream of that tradition, and further study might well place these in an as yet unidentified centre in the hinterland of that city.
