Unknown 15th century artist
Court of Common Pleas, c. 1460
Ink on vellum
Inner Temple Library, London
My first thought today was to combine a poetry entry with an art entry, but then I remembered Andy's request. But posting an illuminated manuscript page still seemed like a good idea. I had to compress this a lot to make the file size manageable, so I would suggest you visit the Inner Temple Library website to see it and the other three illuminated manuscripts in their collection at full size and clarity.
