Antti does wonderful work with the mongols& mendicants and he is also a very kind person. I am sure you would enjoy being in contact with him. His Ph.D. is going to be published in English, so you will be able to read it.

Dear Eve,
Of a very different nature to the sources generally being mentioned
is the Arsenal Old Testament (Paris, Bibl. de l'Arsenal, MS 5211), a
heavily illuminated manuscript produced in Acre in c.1250-54,
apparently for Louis IX. It is also connected with the Templars (not
the Franciscans. Sorry) and is both stylistically and
iconographically related to both French and Byzantine sources. On
which see Hugo Buchtal, Miniature Painting in the Latin Kingdom of
Jerusalem (Oxford, 1957); Jaroslav Folda, Crusader Manuscript
Illumination at Saint-Jean d'Acre, 1275-1291 (Princeton, 1976);
Daniel Weiss, Art and the Crusade in the Age of Saint Louis
(Cambridge, 1998).
Cheers,
Jim Bugslag
