The occasion is the work of the Katalog der deutschsprachigen illustrierten Handschriften des Mittelalters (KdiH), in which text-picture references have been examined since the 1980s. Since 2019, a database version of the catalogue has been available, enabling researchers all over the world to build on the fundamental work of the KdiH.
