I'm a bit late but I really wanted to give you a pear because if you hadn't posted about this at LJ, I wouldn't have signed up!
I apologise for the anachronisms! I'm afraid I can't tell you where the couple on the left come from -- I found them on a fashion history website -- but they are roughly of the right period; the couple in bed came from a historical fiction blog. Christine de Pizan is unfortunately wearing a headdress to lecture. The lovely lettering at the bottom is from Le Palmer's encyclopedia, c.1370. The Cranach is more than a century too late but, when I read about Milady's collars, his paintings were the first thing I thought of (though Googling them led me to an art website with a rather disturbing rape victim category).

Oh, and the typeface is called 'Charlemagne'!
But I hope you like it!
