The 1313 apocalypse was known to be in the library of Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy, who died in 1467. While he did much to expand the library, it may have present earlier. There were also texts by Nicole Oreseme in the library. And Philip was the founder of the Order of the Golden Fleece which bears certain similarities to the VMs critter. No other proposed identification has a stronger foundation of evidence and other proposals can only claim the appearance of the VMs critter has some possible similarities with some animal found in another illustration, and only tries to match one apparent animal with another.

Quote:VViews: There is a problem though... this whole iconography of the Lamb in the book of Revelation revolves around the lamb being alive and alert... It is typically depicted standing with one front leg slightly raised (or passant, for those who enjoy heraldry), whether it is holding a banner or a book.
It is never napping or inanimate, and certainly not dead.
