This print showcases the opening pages of Valerius Maximus's Facta et dicta memorabilia, a renowned literary work from the 15th century. Created in Flanders around 1476, this piece is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship and artistic talent of that era. The intricate details captured in pen and brown ink are brought to life with delicate watercolor and gouache accents. The framing lines in brown ink beautifully enclose the image, drawing our attention to the central composition. The letterpress text adds another layer of authenticity to this historical artifact, evoking a sense of nostalgia for an age when books were meticulously crafted by hand. Measuring at 38.4 x 28.2 cm (15 1/8 x 11 1/8 in. ), this print transports us back in time, allowing us to appreciate both the artistry involved and the significance of Valerius Maximus's work.
