The Froissart of Louis of Gruuthuse is a illustrated deluxe illuminated manuscript in four volumes, containing a French text of Froissart's Chronicles and illuminated in the first half of the 1470s in Bruges, Flanders, in modern Belgium. The text of Froissart's Chronicles is preserved in more than 150 manuscript copies; this is one of the most lavishly illuminated examples, commissioned by Louis of Gruuthuse, a Flemish nobleman and bibliophile. Several leading Flemish illuminators worked on the miniatures; the four volumes are now in the Bibliothèque nationale de France in Paris as BnF, MSS Français 2643-6, contain 110 miniatures of various sizes painted by some of the best Brugeois artists of the day. The page size is 44 x 33 cm, with miniatures of various sizes, from 3/4 page and half-page, to historiated initials; the French text is in two columns and there is extensive marginal decoration of scrolling stems and other plant motifs, with some human and animal figures among them. Loiset Lyédet did the sixty miniatures in the first two volumes.

He was a successful, if somewhat formulaic, working on secular manuscripts for Philip III, Duke of Burgundy and his court. He used assistants, but it is hard to detect separate hands in his work; the last two volumes, which are in general finer, were worked on by the anonymous illuminators known as the Master of Anthony of Burgundy, the Master of Margaret of York, the Master of the Dresden Prayer Book, the last as an assistant to the Master of Anthony of Burgundy. These masters are named after prominent patrons of theirs, it appears that the project was split in half from an early stage, as the scribes who wrote the text and the style of border decoration differ between volumes 1-2 and 3-4. The large miniatures by the Master of Anthony of Burgundy are sophisticated in style, those by the young Master of the Dresden Prayer Book are notable for "their startlingly ambitious palette and combination of colors and vibrantly modelled drapery, an inexhaustible range of well-designed figure poses, challenging placement of figures within complex spaces".

All the illustrations below are from the first two volumes. Louis of Gruuthuse was born and lived in Bruges and was an important member of the court of Philip the Good, he appears to have been the second largest purchaser in the period, after Philip himself, of illuminated manuscripts from the best Flemish workshops at their peak of success. He had a book collection totalling about 190 volumes secular in content, of which over half were contemporary illuminated copies; this made his collection over twice the size of the contemporary English Royal collection. Louis was in fact one of the last people to commission new manuscripts on such a scale. In some cases from that decade the titles existed in printed form, by the end of his life most titles could be bought printed, Flemish illumination of secular works, was in deep decline. Froissart's Chronicles were not printed in Paris, he incorporated portraits of himself in miniatures in several books. Many of his volumes, like this set, passed to King Louis XII of France, are now in the Bibliothèque nationale de France.

King Louis painted his arms over those of Louis de Gruuthuse on some pages in this set. The current bindings are but traces of what were the original blue velvet bindings remain. Like the "Harley Froissart", the most illustrated of all illuminated Froissarts, this is an example of a notable resurgence of interest in Froissart's work from the late 1460s onwards.

Bunhwangsa is a temple complex from the Old Silla era of Korea. It is located in Gyeongju; the temple is recorded to have been built in 634 under the auspices of Queen Seondeok. Today the temple is still used by a small group of worshipers but in its heyday, the temple covered several acres and was one of the four main temples of the Silla Kingdom used by the state to ask the Buddha to bless the kingdom; the ruins of Hwangnyongsa Temple lay nearby. It is part of the UNESCO world heritage site Gyeongju Historic Areas. A notable ruin at the temple is the Bunhwangsa Pagoda, the oldest dated pagoda from the Silla Kingdom; the pagoda is National Treasure of Korea No. 30 and was designated by the South Korean government on December 20, 1962. The pagoda is based on prototypes from the Tang Dynasty in China. However, unlike Tang pagodas which were made from brick, Silla architects used stones of black andesite cut like brick; each story of the pagoda is progressively smaller in size and each story’s roof is made by placing bricks in a staircase-like fashion.

Today, only three tiers of the pagoda remain. Ancient records state the pagoda stood nine stories tall. Although once hollow, the collapsed stories of the pagoda have filled the center of pagoda with debris. An excavation and partial restoration in 1915 by the Japanese uncovered a sarira, or relic box, of the cremated remains of a priest hidden in between the second and third stories. Precious artifacts such as gold and stone ornaments, scissors, a needle were found in the pagoda which indicated that a woman of royal blood even Queen Seondeok herself, had once owned the objects; each side of the pagoda has. Two figures guard each doorway and are known as Geumgan-yeoksa or Inwangsang, guardians of the Buddhist canon; each corner of the one-step platform upon which the pagoda rests holds a guardian lion statue. Granite lotus blossoms adorn the pagoda. A contemporaneous pair of stone pagodas were built at the Baekje Mireuksa Temple and the Bunhwangsa Pagoda is compared with them although those stone pagodas more imitated wood architectural styles.

Located at the temple complex is a well called Hogukyongbyeoneojeong or Samnyongbyeoneojeong from the Silla period. The well's octagonal upper part extends above the ground 70 cm/27.6 in height while the lower part of the well is cylindrical. The structure of the well represents Buddhism's essence. According to legend in the Samguk Yusa, in 795, the 11th year of King Wonseong, missionaries from the Tang Dynasty visited Silla; the missionaries changed three dragons protecting Silla into small fish and took them away to Tang China with them, hidden in bamboo. The next day two women, identifying themselves as two of the dragons' wives, living in Dongji and Cheongji, came to the king and asked the king to retrieve their dragon husbands taken away by the Tang missionaries; the king sent his men in to bring back the dragons, permitting them live in the Bunhwangsa well. Monument pedestal of Hwajaengguksa erected in 1101 at the wish of King Sukjong. Only the stele, with its original calligraphy, remains.

This monument appeared to have been destroyed in 1597 when the temple was destroyed, only the pedestal of the monument was left. The historical research of Chusa Kim Jeong-huI, who visited the temple at the end of the Joseon Dynasty, revealed that it was a monument erected by Wonhyo; some of the inscriptions were written on the site of the Daedonggeumseokseo, discovered in the Bunhwangsa Temple compound in 1976, are located in the museum of Dongguk university. Yaksayeorae, a statue built during the 50th year of King Yeongjo. Of note is the flagpole holder which survives from the Silla era.
