| Dutch ..... Verwijst naar speciale sierkapitalen in geïllumineerde manuscripten die het begin van een vers, alinea of ander tekstgedeelte markeren. In de moderne kalligrafie is de term van toepassing op hoofdletters die zijn opgebouwd door inkting tussen de pennenstreken, en met schreven in de vorm van lange, dunne, rechte lijnen. |
