Evidence
"As well as bottle green, only identified in Alfonso’s scriptorium... indicating its earlier chronology compared to the Ajuda Songbook."
Remarks
The presence of bottle green and absence of mosaic gold in Alfonso's manuscripts suggests an earlier production date than the Ajuda Songbook (p. 294).
