The source records this manuscript art; no substitute image is shown.

The official manuscript record and IIIF manifest are documented. No art folios were safely mapped from the catalogue prose, so a full page-by-page visual audit remains pending. This avoids displaying a neighbouring folio or an image without confirmed reuse permission.
