A very nice example of medieval European Bookart from c 1460. This is an authentic hand-written and decorated, Latin leaf on vellum. The text is Psalm 32:10-11,38:1-11.

This illuminated parchment leaf has thirty six lines of Scripture text written in brown ink in a handsome gothic bookhand, with one two line burnished gold initial on blue and red geometric grounds with white tracery, eleven decorated initials in burnished gold (five initials) and blue ink alternating with black and red penwork flourishes. The vellum leaf is in very good condition. There are traces of aging including, flaking, wrinkling, stains and modern pencil foliation.
