Created by an anonymous Italian School artist in the 15th century, this vellum manuscript is now housed in the Biblioteca Estense in Modena, Emilia-Romagna, Italy.

A group of dancers gracefully moves across the page, their flowing garments echoing the delicate floral patterns that adorn every corner.
