Current Condition
A single leaf has been detached, trimmed as repurposed as a cover for one side of the binding of its host volume. The profile of this relitively small volume is still outlined by the folds of the turn-ins, once glued down to the boards.
-
The greater discolouration on the side of the leaf labelled here as the dorse indicates that this section originally faced outwards when still attached to its host volume.
Book Decoration and Musical Notation
One three-line penwork initial 'S' in blue with pen-flourishes in red. One three-line penwork initial in black with a drawing of a male face.
-
Rubrics in red.
