Description
Français : Saint Michel en armure et soutenu par des anges, combat un dragon à sept têtes dans un paysage montagneux fantastique. Sous ses pieds, dans des souterrains, est représenté l'Enfer dans lequel Satan observe des âmes se faisant torturer. Un petit cartouche au milieu contient la lettrine M décoré du monogramme d'Étienne Chevalier « EE » et le début du texte aujourd'hui masqué. Début des suffrages des saints.
English: Saint Michael in combat with the dragon - Hours of Étienne Knight, enluminées by Jean Fouquet, London, Upton House, Collection Lord Bearsted, Cat. n°184. The scene is inspired by chapter 12 of the Apocalypse which describes the combat of Michel saint against the dragon, symbol of the forces of the Evil. Assisted by the angels, of which one holds its heaume and its lance, Michel raises its sword on the monster to seven heads in front of a mountainous and fantastic landscape. Downwards the caves of the hell open where Satan chairs the torture of the hearts. On the right, one sees in the medium of the flames the dragon from now on pushed back by the archangel.

Hacia abajo las cuevas del infierno se abren adonde Satan preside la tortura de los corazones. A la derecha, uno ve en el medio de las llamas el dragón de ahora encendido empujado detrás por el archangel.
