In its plainest sense Perreal-Research focuses on the life and work of the  outstanding court painter Jean Perreal, also called Jehan de Paris. In a larger sense perreal-research means an interdisciplinary study on art,  literature,  humanistic philosophy and politics of his time, beginning some decades around 1500 and including the sixteenth century,  not only in France, but in many other countries of Renaissance-Europe.

ARL continues an equal research on Jean de Bondol, alias Jean de Bruges, another royal court painter, who lived a century earlier. He is the designer of the famous Apocalypse-tapistries in Angers. More about him, as well as about the poet and musician Guillaume de Machaut and the sofar considered anonymous Master of Vyssi Brod, is to be found on her site
