An article that treats the iconography of the Bleeding Host is:
M. A. Lavin, "The Altar of Corpus Domini in Urbino," *Art Bulletin* 49
(1967) 3-10.
I'm citing from an article cited by the undersigned in her
catalogue of Huntington mss--specifically, regarding HM 1104, a French
book of hours with some decoration added in the late 15th century,
including:
f. 179, opening of the Hours of the Eucharist, ... a bishop and a deacon
kneeling before an altar with a monstrance which shows the image of the
Crucifixion on the Host; in the lower margin a woman receives the
consecrated Host from a priest and then exchanges it with a turbaned Jew
for a tunic; in the last scene the Jew kneels before the bleeding Host
which has been stabbed by a dagger.
