Psalter for Cistercian female supplicant, Initial 'D' with the fool holding a club and biting a loaf, This Biblical Psalter was created in French Flanders for a lady with Cistercian connections in the third quarter of the thirteenth century. Fourteenth-century additions for the use of a woman suggest it continued to be used by female supplicants for some time after its creation
