Letter to Johann von Eich and Historia de duobus amantibus
A illuminated manuscript made around 1460, probably in France or the Low Countries, by an unnamed workshop of professional scribes and illuminators, likely for a wealthy patron who valued humanist texts. The pages pair dense Latin text blocks with framed miniatures of courtly figures and ornate marginal foliage, border sprays with flowers, and gold-leaf initials, offering designers a model for combining narrative scenes with decorative framing.
