We see Paris 1400 from above and zoom down into an artists's house near Notre Dame. There we meet Marguerite, the book illuminator's daughter, who shows us the steps of making a manuscript book as she saves her aging father from the mean André. A glossary of technical terms explains everything from apothecary to vermilion.
