He is from a simple woodcut by Villard de Honne Court, dated 1235. It's in the Bibliotheque National, Paris.
The scene is of hunters, dogs barking at the lion, with the lion chained to a post. I liked the "play stance" of the lion and ignored the rest. The lion has no other significance other than I liked the way he looked.
Eventually he will have the border in silk and the background in couched gold. and everything will be outlined in pearls. I love to make covers for my SCA notebooks. :-)
