This fragment is one of eight known fragmentary witnesses of the Middle Dutch strophic poem Wapene Martijn (also known as the Martijn Trilogy) by the Flemish poet Jacob van Maerlant. A dataset containing transcriptions of all eighteen witnesses was recently published: Moors, Sofie, Kestemont, Mike, and Remco Sleiderink, 'The Martijn Trilogy Manuscripts: An Open Dataset for Analyzing Scribal Variation', Research Data Journal for the Humanities and Social Sciences, 9.1 (2024), 1-21.
For a study of this specific witness, see Moors, Sofie, 'Love is (not) in the Bin. Over het belang van hartstrookjes voor de reconstructie van Middelnederlandse literatuur', In Monte Artium (forthcoming 2026).
The fragment was originally digitized by the Royal Library of Belgium (KBR), see: https://uurl.kbr.be/bib/10744172
Moors personally asked for permission to publish the pictures of the sewing guards.
The pictures in the 'Reconstructed Sequence' are made by Moors.
