This is an illustration from a medieval manuscript. The scene depicts a man leading a large, light-colored animal, likely a camel, which is carrying a large bundle of purple flowers or foliage on its back. The man is dressed in a blue tunic and a draped garment, and he holds a long, thin staff or rod in his hand, seemingly guiding the animal. The camel is depicted with long legs and a curved neck. The bundle on its back is dense and appears to be made of many small, clustered flowers. The background is a pale yellow, and the illustration is framed by a red border. Below the image is a line of Latin text. The style is characteristic of medieval illuminated manuscripts, with flat colors, stylized figures, and decorative borders.
