I made a decision several months ago to give up the commission side of my art business. As my calendar had filled with teaching engagements and trips to far-flung places, it became more and more difficult to find time to squeeze in the labor-intensive custom artwork. But when my friend Mary approached me a few […]

Presumably made in France, Italy or Spain in the 15th century or 16th century Arguably the most mysterious and perplexing manuscript in the history! 1490 - Est SINGLE VOLUME - 208 pages Dimensions: A4 , 210 x 297cm , 8.3" x 11.7" 208 PAGES PRINTED FROM HIGH-DEFINITION SCANS OF THE ORIGINAL Black leather binding and silver foil lettering on the cover and spine from Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, Yale University Limited to just 10 hand bound leather-bound copies. Order now to get your hands on this magnificent reproduction of Voynich Manuscript The manuscript housed at Yale University, known as the Voynich Manuscript, is undeniably the most mysterious and enigmatic work in the history of illuminated manuscripts. Originating in the 15th or early 16th century, it features beautifully detailed figurative and floral illustrations, accompanied by cryptic text across its 204 pages. Over time, the manuscript has attracted numerous prominent figures, with many scholars and enthusiasts dedicating themselves to deciphering its perplexing contents. The Voynich Manuscript, with its potential connections to pharmaceutical, botanical, cosmographic, and astrological themes, remains one of history’s greatest puzzles. Likely created in central Europe—possibly France, Spain, or Italy—during the 15th or early 16th century, the Voynich Manuscript has a rich provenance. It was once owned by Holy Roman Emperor Rudolf II (1576–1612), who commissioned his court pharmacist, Jacobus Horcicky de Tepenecz, to study it. English astrologer John Dee (1527–1608) is also linked to its history. The manuscript later found its way into the collections of Johannes Marcus Marci von Landskron (1595–1667) and Georg Baresch, who sought the expertise of Renaissance scholar Athanasius Kircher (1601–1680) for its decryption. Over the following centuries, the manuscript circulated through various Italian and Roman libraries until it was rediscovered by Wilfrid M. Voynich (1865–1930) in 1912 at Villa Mondragone in Frascati. Voynich donated the manuscript to Yale University in 1969, where it remains today. Mysterious Plants and their Depictions The historical figures intrigued by this extraordinary manuscript were captivated by its content, dating confirmed by script classification and C-14 analysis. The manuscript features vividly colored, large-format drawings of plants, from roots to flowers and fruits, along with enigmatic figurative representations and mysterious diagrams. These illustrations, with their fantastical botanical appearance, raise questions about the manuscript's purpose. Is it a botanical guide, a work on mineralogy or astrology, a pharmacological text, a cosmological treatise, an esoteric manuscript, or something entirely different? Hidden secrets of the manuscript ? The text, intricately woven around the illustrations, could potentially provide insight into the manuscript's scientific nature. However, it is written in an enigmatic, cryptic cipher. Some speculate it might be the work of a universal genius or multiple intelligent contributors. A letter from Johannes Marcus Marci to Athanasius Kircher in 1665 or 1666 suggested Roger Bacon, a notable 13th-century English philosopher, as the author—a hypothesis supported by Wilfrid Voynich. Despite the ongoing efforts and myriad conspiracy theories, the manuscript’s mystery remains unsolved, continuing to captivate researchers and enthusiasts. Will its secrets ever be fully decoded? The enigma persists to this day. Shipped with Free Express FEDEX delivery to worldwide. Turnaround time 3-5 days. Delivery is express and takes maximum 3 days.

Recently in my attempts to get myself to do art post-graduation I have been working on an Illuminted Letters Alphabet. Originally I was just going to make one 'A' but then I got caught up in it, so now I'm moving on to the whole alphabet. Each letter is inspired by an obscure or unusual word. A was before I really had any idea of a theme. I guess in retrospect A is for Aviary. I then experimented with some color, scanning in old test strips of watercolor samples. Still not quite sure if I like that look or not yet. B is for Bric-a-Brac: Small, usually ornamental objects valued for their antiquity, rarity, originality, or sentimental associations C is for Cornucopia. Then I got bored with D and skipped to H, which is for Horology: the art or science of measuring time Currently in progress is E for Entomology
