Gloriosorum christi confessorum Uldarici & Symperti

Leonhard Beck and Berno of Reichenau

National Gallery of Art

This is a drawing of an architectural structure, likely a church or cathedral. The drawing features a detailed depiction of a large, Gothic-style building with multiple spires, pointed arches, and tall windows. The building is adorned with intricate decorative elements characteristic of Gothic architecture, including flying buttresses and finials. The structure's roof is steeply pitched, and the drawing captures various angles and aspects of the design. The text beside the building appears to be Latin.
