History

Provenance

Host volumes were owned by frater Petrus Valckenborch (fol. 1 of volume A contains his provenance mark), who probably bound both volumes together. The combined Sammelband was part of the library of the convent of the beggards of Antwerp from the 17th century until 1796. From 1796 onwards, this library became part of the central municipal library of Antwerp, which would eventually become Erfgoedbibliotheek Hendrik Conscience.
