Getting started with the collection:
The Letters M through Z in Gothic Style
Henri Cameré (1830-1894), red and blue ink, on paper, 1864-1894
In designing these letters, Cameré was influenced by the initials in late medieval manuscripts. They were popular motifs in jewellery to signify the names of children and loved ones. A bracelet by the French goldsmith Lucien Falize with nearly the same initials is in the Schmuckmuseum in Pforzheim, Germany.
