Remarks
It is probably the second part of the book LC 3 (Gradual; from Advent up to Lent), in the Museum of Alberto Sampaio, in Guimarães. LC 3 was made in the same date, by both the same copyist and illuminator. These are the only books to share the same copyist and illuminator. For the other Hieronymite books in the Museu of Alberto Sampaio, the illuminator is Frei Jorge from Santarém.
