Sallust

1050 · 1 picture

Sallust is a medieval manuscript from around 1050, held by the e-codices Virtual Manuscript Library of Switzerland, and was copied for a scholarly readership of Latin texts. The one picture shows a concentric unicursal labyrinth drawn in brown ink on aged vellum, with a small inscription in the upper left corner and a central circle with a single point. A designer might take its strict rings and single winding path as a model for geometric line patterns or maze motifs.
