1480's once again

1480's once again
The name incunable refers to the first printed books that were made in Europe before the year 1501. Often they had hand-drawn or painted initials and sometimes illustrations. This one has handdrawn detailing in red ink for the first half of the book. I guess someone got bored after that.

It's a printed book and only the initials are hand-painted, so it's hard to say.
