Description

Particular's owner and designer Pam Boyce says of the illustration's source that she "came upon this breathtaking collection called Model Book of Calligraphy from one of my favorite online curators over at My Modern Met. (It was) a 16th-century manual that was created over the course of 30 years by Georg Bocskay, secretary to the Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand I, in order to record all the types of writing known to him. Thirty years later Hungarian/Flemish illustrator Joris Hoefnagel added these charming, if not slightly idiosyncratic illustrations to the pages." 


Particular Press is a place for lovers of art, paper and paper ephemera. Where all that is old and beautiful and curious is remembered, and all that is new, lovely, and fresh is celebrated.
