Thanks to @AnnMariaWalsh, I'm enjoying a bit of #earlymodern #palaeography after work on #manuscriptmonday - a rare treat these days!
ALT Open laptop with a manuscript image on screen. Also on the dark green desk are a paper stand, a blue notepad and pencil, a brass lamp, black pencil case, glass of water and coasters.
Hurray! I'm looking forward to reading everyone's contributions. The conference that started it all was fantastic.

I've wanted to write a @DIB_RIA entry on Dorothy Moore since 2015. Thanks, @evan_bourke & @EoinPKinsella for making this wish come true!
