This manuscript belonged to a member of the Bolognese Ghislieri family, probably Bonaparte Ghislieri (d. 1541), a senator of Bologna.
This lavishly gilded Renaissance miniature on folio 74v shows the Annunciation. The Virgin is at her prie-dieu, with the archangel Gabriel kneeling in front of her on the left. Above left, the arms of the Ghislieri family are set into the city gate.
