Historical background
LORRAINE - BISHOP OF METZ - RAOUL OF COUCY
(07/13/1387-1415)
The big messin has lost its weight and its title compared to the pieces of Thierry V de Boppard. Sometimes, we talk about small wholesale for this piece which was worth 12 deniers messins. Marsal's workshop was located in Moselle.
