This is a great day! The scans from the 2015 Wiktenauer<\/a> fundraiser are now available. It has been a long wait, but very much worth it. In particular, I am finally able to look at a high quality color version of the important Lovino manuscript. I have described earlier<\/a> how significant that work was in many respects, and seeing it with such clarity is quite an experience…<\/p>\n

The only downside was that I am not sure of the status of these scans, as far as sharing them with others goes. Out of curiosity, I gave a look at the Gallica archive, and lo and behold, the scans are actually publicly available<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Here is an example of how good the published plates are, compared to what was available before:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Plate XI as it appears in the Raymond J. Lord collection file<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The plate is redrawn in the edition by Lionel Lauvernay. It is much clearer, but some details are of course lost…<\/p><\/div>\n

\"\"<\/a>

The current resolution offered by the National French Library. All the details are clear, including hand position.<\/p><\/div>\n

Of course the full original text is also up here, for everyone to use.<\/p>\n

Having this manuscript widely accessible was a sort of childhood dream for me, as I had some of the plates in books that I used to read again and again. Mad props to the Wiktenauer for pushing this in the open! And thanks to all the contributors who ended up funding this… I suppose without the fundraiser the manuscript would still be hidden.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
