16th century
Description:
This document is a medieval manuscript page, recognisable by its parchment-like texture and the characteristic features of the calligraphy. It shows a finely crafted, Latin text with alternating red and blue initials, possibly used to emphasise sections. Skilful majuscules suggest the inclusion of illuminations. A diplomatic and respectful treatment of the artefact is essential for the preservation of its condition and historical value. This copy was probably made in the later 16th century.
