Ink identification in Ars nova fragments preserved in Nuremberg and Melk

Bosch, Sebastian; Janke, Andreas

This report describes the methods and results of three measurement campaigns performed between 2019 and 2021 in Nuremberg (Germany) and Melk (Austria). The aim of them was to investigate inks in related fragments of music manuscripts from the first few decades of the fifteenth century in order to gain new information on their history, thereby complementing codicological and palaeographic studies.
