About this work

This page is packed with tiny, black letters in neat rows. Three red circles with white centers sit in the margins like stamps. A thin red stripe runs down the left edge, and the paper has a yellowish, worn look. The text is arranged in blocks, with some words underlined in red. The handwriting is precise but uneven, as if written quickly by hand. Look up Renaissance next to see how this style spread beyond Italy.
