Scene outside city walls. A knight in armour is preparing to throw a tennis size ball to two excited dragons. "Who's a good boi? Good boi? Who?" The third dragon is obediently sitting behind the knight.
Manuscript Cambrai, BM, ms. 0422, f. 95v

I am sad to have missed this (by years!!) but in the autumn of 2016 Boston museums collaborated on an exhibition of illuminated manuscripts. It was called Beyond Words; its website abides and is itself worth checking out.
