Decorative initial letter capital “D” featuring vine-leaves, and a modestly-clad almost-naked seated Bacchus figure with a large wine-cup. A bare-footed woman or boy outside the letter holds a jug or ewer. Initials with leaves like this are said to be foliated; letters with little scenes are historiated initials. |
