FRIENDS WITH AN OLD BOOK

Topographia Galliae_Task2_Melber_Antonia - Archived

Posted on 11/13/202009/13/2021

I chose this page, because it is the beginning of the first part of the book. That`s why the page before is empty. The first part oft the book includes a discription of the kingdom france and its sourrounding places. The language is old german, most words are understandable. Above the title there is a decorative design. The title and the first letter of the paragraph are also very decorative and complex. The normal german text is writen bold and twirly. Names are writen thin, better to read.
This spread shows an illustration of Paris in 1620. You see the city from far away and it seems as if you are looking from a hill. The picture is framed with trees and bushes. There is also a woman painting the view. Below the illustration there is a legend. The according numbers and letters are found in the illustration. A small emblem is found in the right corner.
 




These two pages are the beginning of the list of streets, bridges, passways and other architectural elements. The text is devided in three slots. The elements each have a number in front of them. Above the title you find a decorative floral element. Exept these elements the pages are very plain and text-based.
