The intricate details of the painting are truly awe-inspiring, with the use of bold, capital letters adding a sense of grandeur and importance to the image.

This painting is a prime example of the Gothic art style, with its use of bold lines, intricate details, and vivid colors. Overall, this miniature painting is a must-see for anyone interested in medieval art, Gothic art, or the history of Spain.
