The 15th-century parchment codex includes La Prinse et mort du roy Richart (Book of the Capture and Death of King Richard II). This work was commissioned between November 1401 and March 1402 by Philip the Bold, duke of Burgundy; it was composed by Jean Creton (active 13861420), historian and poet.
The miniature on folio 14v shows the arrival of the Earl of Salisbury to Conway Castle, Wales.
