Notes |
See also 1900,1019.57 for a similar sheet. Malcolm Jones notes (email, May 2009) that both sheets were also used to illustrate Dutch 'Family of Love' books that exist in subsequent English translations (see STC 18554: 'Epistola XI. HN (=Hendrik Niclas, the founder of the radical spiritualist movement known as the Family of Love) Correction and exhortation out of heartie loue. Trans. out of Base-almayne' [by C. Vitell, Cologne, ?1574]). For further information, see R.S. Luborsky & E.M. Ingram, 'A Guide to English Illustrated Books, 1536-1603', Arizona, 1998, pp. 593-595, fig.55. For the identification of the Monogrammist HE with Ladenspelder, see H. de la Fontaine Verwey, ' The Family of Love', in Quaerendo 6, 1976, pp.219-71 |

Licensing[edit]
This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
