An Abecedarium: Illuminated Alphabets from the Court of the Emperor Rudolf II Book
"Mira Calligraphiae Monumenta" is a flamboyant demonstration of two arts - calligraphy and miniature painting - and was produced in the court of Emperor Rudolf II. This is the second half which comprises two alphabets drawn and illuminated by miniaturist Joris Hoefnagel.

They are fully explained with a detailed commentary.Read More
