2 Medieval 16th Century Antiphonal Music Sheets on Velum - Ancient Antiques
An Estate Sale find from a decade or more ago. So I don't know the history of this particular manuscript, or country of origin. This is a double sheet from an old volume of church music- painstakinly inked onto velum in what I believe is Latin. Probably by monks sometime in the 16th century. Each individual page measures 14-1/2 inches wide and 20 inches tall. Making the overall dimensions 29" x 20" The pages show age, and although they have some of the characteristic rippling, and a little curling at the corners, they are in nice condition for being well over 500 years old and lay basically flat! I've seen several individual pages listed, but not a double leaf. The yellow aging is much more present on the two outside pages than the two inside ones. As I believe you can tell in the pictures. Also, some photos look like the ... moreink has bled through from the other side, but it's just that the flash makes it appear that way. There is a small ink smear on the upper part of one of the inside pages. Which I find endearing- I can imagine the monk who has been laboring over his work having a fuss over the smear that occurred on his otherwise beautiful sheet. My photos should answer any other questions you have. But feel free to send me a message if I left some detail out. Pictures on the listing are ALWAYS of the actual item you are bidding on! Please remember that all of my items are previously loved and used and are sold SOLD AS IS/ AS FOUND. Our home is smoke free. But we do have a cat that we love, and it is possible that a hair or two might accidentally end up in a package. Just mentioning that in case it matters to you.
