Calligraphers

Lester F. Black penned the calling cards in this late nineteenth-century volume of thirty calligraphic samples, as well as a brief note on the final page.

This manuscript is a calligraphic devotional book containing Latin prayers and hymns corresponding to the Roman Catholic liturgical year. It was created by an unknown person in 1827, perhaps a Cistercian nun at the Doornzele Abbey near Ghent, Belgium.
