Louis I, Duke of Orléans
The chronicle was written by Márk Kálti (lat. "Marci de Kalt") shortly after the year 1358, with the last of the illuminations being finished between 1370 and 1373. The chronicle was given by the great Hungarian king Louis I to the French king Charles V, when the daughter of Louis, Catherine, was engaged to Charles's son Louis I, Duke of Orléans.
