Reconstruction Summary

The fragmentary antiphoner leaves comprise a bifolium and a single folio, containing chants for Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Palm Sunday. Written on parchment with black square notation on red five-line staves, the fragments feature alternating red and blue pen-flourished initials alongside black ink initials for minor divisions. The foliation is inconsistent, with leaves marked 7, 14, and LXXIII by different hands.
