Death of the Justly Deserted (MS M.1261).

The text on the reverse of the miniature extends from "les aumosnes asustenter les povres ... " to " ... qui est le xie peril scilicet Iusta a deo & mundo derelictio."
Variant title: Les douze perils d'enfer (translation of De duodecim periculis)
Decoration: The miniature (illustrating the text's eleventh peril: being justly deserted by God and the world) depicts a sick man on his deathbed, with hands clasped as if in prayer, watching a priest who reads from a missal at an altar. In the background is a large crowd of laymen, perhaps all physicians to judge by their headgear, including one holding up a specimen-flask to examine its contents, another with a strong-box held under his arm, and a black-clad monk or friar addressing the sick man. In the foreground a man kneels and takes items out of an open chest.
Artist: Master of Cardinal de Bourbon.
The parent manuscript is Paris, Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal, MS 5207. While five miniatures remain in the parent codex, this is the only miniature of the nine cut from the manuscript known to survive.
This cutting and eight others were separated from the parent manuscript (Paris, Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal, MS 5207) before 1731, when Montfaucon described the manuscript, mentioning only the five miniatures currently remaining in the codex. The manuscript was commissioned by Catherine de Coëtivy (1460-1529), an important bibliophile whose manuscripts are mainly preserved at the Musée Condé, Chantilly. It copies an earlier manuscript of the text illuminated by Jean Colombe at Bourges for Charlotte of Savoy (Paris, BnF, MS fr. 449).
