@medieval_illuminations quand tu veux faire du poney mais qu'il reste plus que "Belzébuth" parce que "Galopin" et "Mustang" sont déjà montés
@medieval_illuminations why is he doing that
@johngrey @medieval_illuminations I think it's the Antichrist as depicted in the Apocalypse. The aureole in this miniature is dark. Saints and Christ himself usually have golden aureoles in medieval art. This picture reminds me of the stained glass windows in St. Mary in Frankfurt (Oder, Eastern Germany) depicting the life of Antichrist as a perversion of Christ's CV.
@medieval_illuminations "Christ riding a devil" is my new favourite exclamation of surprise.
