Description
Manuscript vellum leaf from a Missal. Region unknown, but probably southern Europe. 13th or early 14th century, based on flourishing of initials. Two leaves (10.8 x 8.8 cm). Semi-textualis hand. Minuscule text in red and black. Ink flourishing on some initials. A nice example of just how abbreviated medieval Latin could get, even in a non-legal text such as this.
