Musician and monkeys; dog chasing a stag, 1284-c1316. Part of Psalm 12, and Psalm 13, beginning with initial 'D'. Marginal drawings of a musician playing a fiddle, a grotesque with bagpipes, and at the foot, a stag hunted by a dog. The psalter was probably commissioned to celebrate the proposed marriage of Prince Alphonso, son of King Edward I, and Margaret, daughter of Florent V, Count of Holland, which did not take place due to the death of Alphonso in August 1284. From the Alphonso Psalter [formerly known as the Tenison Psalter].
