EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite beauty of the Ornamented Roman Majuscule Alphabet, created by Daniel Hopfer in approximately 1520. The close-up view allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of this stunning piece of heritage art. Hopfer, a German artist known for his exceptional etchings, demonstrates his mastery in lettering with this ornate alphabet. Each capital letter is meticulously designed, reflecting the artistic sensibilities of 16th-century Rome. The contrast between black and white adds depth and elegance to the composition.
