## Commentary

Virgil: Eclogues, Georgics, Aeneid c. 1403 Manuscript \(Med. Pal. 69\) Biblioteca Medicea Laurenziana, Florence This Latin manuscript contains the three most famous works by Virgil, and it was written by Pierre de Lormel d&#39;Alvergne in 1403. The decoration includes two miniatures at the beginning of the Georgics and the Aeneid, attributed to a French illuminator known as the &#39;Virgil Master&#39; \(documented between the 1390s and 1420s\) and his assistants. Folio 64v, illustrated here, shows the scene at the beginning of the Georgics.
