Variations of Gothic Numerals
In addition to the instances posted in ##404 and 405, I would like to point out some more samples to illustrate the enormous bandwith of the spectrum of representing a certain Gothic cypher/numeral.
I also attached an illustration of an executioner's saw dated 1594, with cypher 4 still represented in the Gothic tradition,though done at the end of the 16th century! The saw was at auction at Hermann Historica's, Munich, in October 2008. Have fun! Best, Michael Last edited by Matchlock; 13th January 2014 at 05:41 PM. |
