VISUAL DESCRIPTION
This is an image of a medieval manuscript illustration depicting a noble figure, possibly from the 12th or 13th century. The individual is drawn within two concentric circles and appears to be wearing period-appropriate attire, including a long tunic with possible fur trim at the hem and sleeves, leggings, and pointed shoes. He has a beard and wears a hat that could indicate his status or region. In one hand he holds what looks like a walking stick or scepter, while in the other he carries what might be interpreted as either an orb—a symbol of authority—or perhaps some kind of fruit. The Latin text surrounding the figure identifies him as "Hannibal comes, " which translates to "Count Hannibal. " This title suggests that he was likely an aristocrat or ruler during his time. The style of writing indicates it's from the High Middle Ages due to its Gothic script characteristics. The overall condition of the parchment shows signs of aging with discoloration and spots where ink has faded over time, adding historical value to this artifact.
