#fairytaletime From @uofglasgowasc MS Hunter 4 (S.1.4) this is a manuscript copy of Josephus ‘Jewish Antiquities’ and ‘Jewish War’ dating from the C12th. This initial is the letter 'A', and I can't enjoy enough of a dragon inside it.

It's been nice to talk with a clever person... interesting detail from @lulgalleries Ripon Cathedral MS 1 (Bible, ca. 1260), folio 208v. Of cause these too are not chatting. It's "Psalm 38, showing an initial 'D' which encloses a scene of David pointing to his mouth and looking up to God" , according to the source: @uofgcodicologist. #ancientmanuscript #medievalmanuscript #beautyofillustration #artofillustration #historyofpublishing #historyofillustration #todaymood (at Moscow, Russia)
Colours: green, gold, violet/blue, red. Details from the incunable's page. This is 1479 early printed text (@uofglasgowasc MS BD9-a.9) that has been decorated by an excised illuminated parchment border chopped out of an earlier manuscript, cut up, and pasted into place.

This is @uofglasgowasc MS Hunter 269 (U.5.9), Guillaume Tardif's 'Fauconnerie & Venerie et la chasse' [France: c.1494], a compilation on the arts of hawking & the chase. Commissioned by Charles VIII of France, this beautifully illustrated copy has 5 floriated pages (this is the 1st, folio 1r) & marginal pictures of birds & dogs. #illumination #illuminatedmanuscript #goldleaf #uofglasgow #uofglibrary #manuscripts #books #bookhistory #bookart #medieval #medievalmanuscripts #rarebooks source: @uofgcodicologist #beautyofmanuscript #historyofpublishing #historyofillustration #artofillustration (at Lucca, Italy)
