[00:00:24]This personalized work was clearly made to order.

[00:00:29]They can be placed at the beginning of this artist's career around 1490 because details demonstrate his loyalty to his master, the Master of Jacques de Besançon, active in Paris around 1485 to 1505.

[00:00:44]Another composition, Pentecost with the canopy and the lectern, is linked to the Master of Jacques de Besançon, as in the [music] hours preserved in Nantes. The composition of the raising of Lazarus with the figures holding their noses also comes from the repertoire of the Master of Jacques de Besançon, as can be seen in the same hours of Nantes.
