Spencerian script and ornamental penmanship

Spencerian script and ornamental penmanship by Michael R. Sull, vol. 1. Distributed by John Neal. Size 21 x 28 cm, 218 b/w pages spiral bound.

Spencerian script and ornamental penmanship is a gorgeous black and white study workbook by the well-known american calligrapher Michael Sull, the heir of a long tradition of master penmen.

This book is for those interested in learning the Spencerian script with its particular capital letters and very delicate thicks but most of all it is a very well documented history of the Golden age of ornamental penmanship, so often neglected in Europe. We still have a lot to learn about this american tradition!
