Here is an example of Spencerian script done by Matthias Zeltinger. I have seen his first name spelled both as Mathias as well as Matthias. See how ornate this writing is. Here is a little something about this type of handwriting: "Named after Platt Rogers Spencer (1800-1864), Spencerian Script, a uniquely American form of ornamental penmanship, became an important part of business and personal life in the United States. Born near Poughkeepsie, New York, Spencer was a dynamic individual whose vision and boundless energy were responsible for ushering in a major period of economic and artistic endeavor in America. The GOLDEN AGE OF ORNAMENTAL PENMANSHIP lasted from approximately 1850 to 1925, and resulted in perhaps the most elaborate penmanship every written by the human hand." | Original Image |
