EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a manuscript page from the 15th century, specifically from Ms 196. Dominicus de Dominicis Venetus' work titled "De potestate Papae, De creatione cardinalium". The page features an exquisite example of humanistic bookhand with subtle Gothic influences. The meticulous script is rendered in black ink on paper and is adorned with a vibrant red rubric. What makes this particular page even more intriguing is the space left for an unexecuted decorated initial. This suggests that the manuscript may have been intended to be further embellished or illuminated at a later time but remained incomplete. The manuscript itself belongs to the Central Italian School and was created between 1456-1464 by an anonymous scribe hailing from Central Italy. Its historical significance lies not only in its age but also in its subject matter, which delves into topics such as papal power and the creation of cardinals. Thanks to the kind permission of the Earl of Leicester and the Trustees of the Holkham Estate, we are fortunate enough to admire this remarkable piece through this print provided by Bridgeman Images. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and intellectual pursuits during one of history's most transformative periods –the fifteenth century– leaving us captivated by its beauty and eager to explore its rich cultural context further.
