Memorial Day piece: In Flanders Field

In Flanders Fields, Memorial Day, Veteran's Day, Remember our soldiers

After I saw several small calligraphy pieces in a Boston bookstore, I was challenged to do my own “small” piece using a Brause 1mm nib. The result is this famous poem rendition in Uncial.

Each letter is only 1/8″ high, not including the ascenders or descenders. It is only four inches from the top line of text to the bottom of the last line of text.
