"Ein new Furmbüchlein" (A New Form Book) is a calligraphic manuscript created by Johann Schönsperger the Younger sometime between 1520 and 1530. This small, hand-written book showcases the beauty of blackletter script, a popular style of typography during the Renaissance. The piece, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to the artistry of penmanship and the rich cultural heritage of early modern Germany.
