Calligraphy gilded hand writing columbine cherry clipboard

Antique Latin calligraphy with gilded ornament and European columbine and sweet cherry illumination. Pages from a 16th century illuminated manuscript titled 'Mira calligraphiae monumenta', in collaboration of two exceptional artists of the era. The fabulous calligraphy was created in 1561-62 by György Bocskay, Croatian-born court secretary to the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand I - the fine illustrations of flowers, fruits and insects were added by Belgian painter and illuminator Jorist Hoefnagel about 30 years later, after Bocskay's death.
