Just one image here. It's an earlier (1410) representation from the story of Ortnit. There's a similar illustration from Strasbourg dated 1420. It is an interesting tale, new to me. Is it familiar to others??

The other source from Alsace has eleven illustrations from a bible dated 1410.

I don't really know how to describe this style. Compared to later Strasbourg and Haguenau productions it appears 'crude' or 'raw' or *something*. But taking a closer look at the illustrations reveals that the artist has gone through and painted everyone's lips red.
The presence of red lips is prevalent among the VMs nymphs, of course. I looked for this manuscript in prior discussions here but didn't find it. Is there an investigation with data on "red lips"?
