MEDIEVAL NOTARY MANUSCRIPT ON VELLUM, Ferrara, 24 March 1450.

Single leaf of parchment (426x345 mm), written in sepia ink by a 15th century cursive writing, 61 lines of text in Latin.
14-lines capital I drawn in pen at the beginning of the document. At the bottom of the page, three signa tabellionis near the signatures.

The document is an agreement concerning buildins and a farmed land, including a dovecote.

The text refers to important people of the time such as Giovanni Roverella, relative and lawyer of the bishop of Ravenna Bartolomeo Roverella (1406-1476), Alberto D'Este (presumably the son of Niccolò III d’Este, born in 1415 and dead in 1502), Alberico de Manfredis (member of the important family of the Manfredi of Faenza) and many names of families living in the central regions of Italy.

The act was prepared by the notaries Giovanni de Belitis, Giovanni de Lorano and Anastasio Morello.
