• The four drawings depict the rôle of St. Hugh, Bishop of Grenoble, in the founding of the mother-house of the Carthusian Order, the Grand Chartreuse. (From p. 25 of the cited source.)
• In the first image St. Hugh, both mitred and nimbed, sits on his episcopal throne, dreaming about the seven stars. These fall to the ground, dividing the visionary bishop in the visual syntax of the picture from Bruno, in a doctor's cap, and his six companions. In the next scene, Hugh relates the dream to the seven who kneel, now in front of him. He then directs the group to a wilderness place, the desolation of which is indicated by a forest. Finally, the new Carthusian monks, arrayed in their distinctive white robes, enter the monastery they have built, while the bishop presides—whether metaphorically or literally is unclear—in the background.
