Description
Before Dutch still life painting developed, artists illuminated handwritten manuscripts to add emotional power to a written work. A celebrated practitioner of this style was Joris Hoefnagel. Reproduced for our Flemish Rose journal cover is a page he illuminated for the Mira calligraphiae monumenta, a mid-16th-century manuscript by Georg Bocskay.
This journal is absolutely stunning! The Flemish Rose design is rich in detail and history, making it feel like a true work of art. The midi size is perfect for carrying around, and the lined pages make writing a joy. The hardcover is durable, and the gold accents add an elegant touch. It’s more than just a notebook—it’s a piece of history you can hold. Highly recommend for anyone who loves beautiful, high-quality journals!
