This manuscript page contains a complex historical and genealogical diagram (likely from a "Compendium Historiae in Genealogia Christi"). A vertical central timeline is flanked by text blocks and roundels containing names. Red lines connect the roundels to illustrate lineage, synchronicity, and lengths of reign (indicated by Roman numerals like xv, xvi, xviii). On the left are the Kings of Judah; on the right are the Kings of Israel and various prophets. Small circular diagrams at the bottom right illustrate the family of Tobias and the kings of Babylon. The text is written in a late medieval Gothic script with red rubrication for emphasis and initials.
