EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph showcases two consecutive leaves from a 15th-century antiphonal, a type of medieval liturgical manuscript. The leaves are made of parchment and feature text written in black ink with essential rubrics in vibrant red. The musical notation, displayed in a German Gothic hufnagel style, is printed in red ink on a 5-line stave with the notes F and C marked. The hufnagel style is characterized by its intricate and ornate design, which was popular during the late Gothic period. The antiphonal leaves are fragments from a larger manuscript, likely used for liturgical music during religious services. The Latin text and musical notation provide a glimpse into the rich musical and religious traditions of the medieval era. This fragment offers a valuable insight into the intricacies of medieval music and the production of incunabula, early printed books produced between the invention of the printing press in the mid-15th century and the end of the 16th century.
