	Les Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry
		Since a deed dated February 1, 1434, concerning Paul de Limbourg's house in Bourges at the death of his widow refers to him in the same terms," paintre nommé Pol, natif du pays d'Allemaigne, " one and the same person seems to be involved.
		On January 15, 1412, Jean de Berry gave Paul de Limbourg ("Paulo de Limbourc") a diamond mounted on a gold ring; this was followed by another golden ring " où il a un ours d'esmeraude sur une terrace de mesmes" ("on which an emerald bear lies on a bed of emeralds").
		If these two manuscripts are correctly attributed to the Limbourgs, it would prove that although the brothers devoted the greater part of their energies to works commissioned by the Duc de Berry, they were not above executing less important works for other collectors.
