Scriptorium – my 12th century inspired knighting scroll & vigil book page for my husband :)

2017/04/20

And finally – last but not least – the 12th century inspired knighting scroll and vigil book page which I made for my husband’s knighting at Gulf Wars! Well, as you might already know, I consider the 12th century the one “true century”. However, I have to admit that I awfully neglected my beloved century when it comes to calligraphy and scrolls.

Therefore I was very happy when I was asked to contribute to this very special moment by creating the Knighting scroll.
