Exquisite nails & cuff on this manicule. From the life of St Mochóemóc founder of Leighmore, Co. Tipperary, in The 'Codex Kilkenniensis', our 15th century collection of the lives of Irish saints #ManiculeMonday #ManuscriptMonday

Doggy #doodle at the back of a Latin vocabulary from 1566.

A beautiful sunny day to ring in May Day! Falalas from Thomas Morley's 1595 'Balletts to five voyces' #MayDay

David playing the harp, from our 13th century illuminated Bible #Manuscripts #Illumination

Blown away by this first edition of Oscar Wilde's poem 'The Sphinx' from our Benjamin Iveagh collection. A mere 200 copies were printed & the fabulous illustrations were done by Charles Ricketts

'Good effort Giovanni, but the shape could do with some work'. A map of the Americas from Giovanni Botero's Relationi Universali, 1640.

What a gorgeous day! Perfect time to begin our evening tours for #CultureDateWithDublin8!

We've had lots of fun photographing our Medieval #manuscripts this week - this grumpy fella was one of the many highlights!

Some of the spacing in this very nice index is making my librarian brain itch! From the life of Apollonius of Tyana, printed 524 years ago by Benedetto Faelli whose mark you can see on the bottom right.

A sparkly seal on a letter Élie Richard sent from Groningen in 1663 to his cousin Élie Bouhéreau in La Rochelle #Letters #Archives #Patrimoine

The ink at the end of this #manicule or pointing finger got away from this reader to produce a nail worthy of Flo-Jo! #ManiculeMonday #Readers

What a gorgeous title page on this 1532 edition of poet Jean Bouchet's novel 'Les Triumphes de la noble et amoureuse dame' #TitlePageTuesday

An abundance of hand-coloured roses attracting bees & spiders. From Hieronymous Bock's 1552 herbal.

There's nothing worse than getting your spacing wrong! The title on the tail edge tells us this book about the Kingdom of Naples, printed in 1563, was previously stored lying down. It's been (standing up) on our shelves since 1707!
