EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the 16th Century Albert Durer's Prayer Book. The image is taken from "The Book of Ornamental Alphabets - Ancient & Mediaeval" by F. G. Delamotte, published in London in 1862. Albert Durer, also known as Alberto Durero or Albrecht Durer, was a renowned German artist and engraver during the Renaissance period. This prayer book represents his artistic prowess and religious devotion, making it a significant artifact. The monochrome aesthetic adds to the allure of this photograph, emphasizing the intricate details of the ornamental alphabet used within the book. The lower case script beautifully complements the religious text found on its pages. Freeman Gage Delamotte, an expert in lettering and calligraphy during the 19th century, compiled this collection of alphabets from various historical sources. His work aimed to preserve ancient writing styles for future generations. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to witness both artistic excellence and spiritual significance intertwined within one manuscript. It serves as a testament to human creativity and devotion throughout centuries past. This print is not only an exquisite decorative piece but also a window into our cultural heritage that should be cherished for years to come.
