The image displays two excerpts of manuscript text written in a 16th-century Dutch secretary hand. The script identifies the artist by his legal name, Jheronimus van Aken, and notes that he used the professional name Jheronimus Bosch. These accounts record the religious ceremonies and a memorial meal held by the Illustre Lieve Vrouwe Broederschap following the artist's death.

This is the primary historical document confirming the identity and death of Hieronymus Bosch, linking the visionary painter to the specific religious confraternity that influenced his moralizing and apocalyptic iconographies. It serves as a vital bridge between the artist's life and the late medieval devotional practices that informed his depictions of heaven, hell, and the soul's struggle.
