This historic initial letter was designed by Pieter Van der Borcht for use in an antiphonary to be published by Christopher Plantin by the request of King Philip of Spain. The book was never published.
Each letter is beautifully presented in a solid wood gold frame and a generous 6 ply mat with a hand-painted gold beveled edge. There is a hook for wall hanging or an optional brass easel stand for desk and tabletop display. Attached to the back is a story card describing the history behind the letter.
