Vespasiano Amphiareo

Was doing a bit of cleaning on my harddrive when I came across these scans from Vespasiano Amphiareo book on writing from 1548. I am always amazed to see what was done by hand in those days. Somehow it makes me sad that I don’t have skills remotely like this when it comes to handwriting. But still, I do so enjoy looking through stuff like this because it’s just still stunning.
