I got it! It's amazing what you can check out from a library:)

  Hola!

  A few months ago, I tried my hand at painting an milkmaid milking her cow.
I got the picture from "Women in the Middle Ages" by Francis and Joseph
Giles on page 148.  If you've read the book, then you know that the pictures
are very fuzzy.  I showed it to Duchess Willow and she said the colors I
used were very wrong and I really needed to take a look at a colored
picture.  We went back to her home and we looked through nearly every book
she had on illumination (again, thank you, Your Grace!), but to no avail, we
could not find a color picture of the illumination.  I found online the MS
Bodley Beastairy book, "Bestiary: Being an English Version of the Bodleian
Library, Oxford MS Bodley 764" that this illumination might be in.

  My question is this....Does anyone have this book or even a color copy of
this illumination?  If so, can you scan the picture for me? I will be more
than happy to prove a CD to burn it on, if need be.

  Thanks!

  Maria
