1800s Lettering Sketchbook, image 14

    Newer Older

    This flourished fraktur capital letter M was pasted into a sketchbook of romantic and medial lettering (traces, copies?) that some wonderful British gentlemen put together during the nineteenth century. Showed to us in the fantastic Monday afternoon sessions with Michael Twyman at the University of Reading.

      Hello!
      This is one of the best examples of calligraphic flourishing I have seen.

      I am the admin for a budding group called 'Western Calligraphy and Lettering in the Early Modern Styles': www.flickr.com/groups/1798506@N22/

      I would be honoured if you could add this image to our pool.

      Thank you very much.
