This initial, beginning an unidentified chant, was painted by an anonymous illuminator known today as the Master of Montemorcino Antiphonary Q, who was responsible for the illumination of one of a group of choir books made for the Olivetan Monastery of Montemorcino in Perugia. It is unclear at this stage to which choir book in the group this initial belonged.
