Twee ontwerpen van schrijfvoorbeelden: de Spaanse letter 1605

This artwork, created in 1605 by Dutch painter Jan van de Velde I, showcases two calligraphic designs of the Spanish alphabet. The designs are executed in black ink on paper, each encompassing a full set of uppercase and lowercase letters, as well as numbers. This piece, currently held at the Rijksmuseum, is a prime example of the calligraphic art prevalent in the early 17th century. It demonstrates the refined and elegant style of writing popular during that era, and provides insight into the beauty and precision of hand-crafted letterforms.
