This early twelfth-century English chronicle was written by two monks, Florence and John of Worcester. The subject of the shown illustration is a dream of King Henry I of England, in which he visualized separate groups of peasants, knights, and churchmen visiting him and complaining about excessive taxation. The image is divided into three compartments (two of which, the peasants and the knights, are shown in this detail), in each of which is the seated narrator Grimbald, King Henry I's physician.
