"The Rothschild Miscellany - a major work of medieval bookmaking and one of the finest Hebrew manuscripts to survive from the Middle Ages - was written and illuminated in Treviso, Northern Italy, in 1479. It was commissioned by Moses ben Yekutiel ha-Kohen, an Ashkenazi Jew who wanted the book to reflect the traditions of the Rhineland" (Kommentar, S. 11). – Neuwertig.
