One of the most celebrated practitioners of the Dutch style of illumination was Joris Hoefnagel (1542–1601). Hoefnagel, a pivotal artistic figure from the Netherlands, is remembered as being the last important Flemish manuscript illuminator and one of the first artists to work on the new genre of still life. In the 1590s the Emperor Rudolf II commissioned Hoefnagel to add his illuminations to the Mira calligraphiae monumenta, a mid-16th-century manuscript on the art of calligraphy by Georg Bocskay. The page reproduced for our new Flemish Rose design is known as Wainscot, French Rose, Wasplike Insect, English Daisy and Caterpillar. Flemish Rose is available as an ultra, midi (lined and unlined) and mini (lined) hardcover journal and a canvas bag. Learn more:
