The Bibliotheca Corviniana was the second largest library of the Renaissance after the Vaticana. The Hungarian king Mathias Corvinus (1458-1490) compiled it at great expense, for which he had magnificently decorated manuscripts produced, mainly in Italy. Characteristic are the mostly splendid illuminations of the manuscripts, the leather bindings decorated with gold and the velvet and silk bindings. About 200 "corvines" are still recorded. Take a look at the beautiful works, digitalized on the website Bibliotheca Corvina.

[Neil Gaiman] wrote, “Could we go a bit more Ballantine Adult Fantasy? Their “Worm Ouroboros” or “Voyage To Arcturus”? As if it’s a 1920s book someone is repackaging in 1969?”

Jet-black Polyhedral Seal of The Western Wei General
This multi-faceted jet seal of the Western Wei dynasty, belonged to the famous General Dugu Xin (獨孤信). It has 8 edges and 26 sides: 18 square and 8 triangular ones. It is the ancient polyhedral seal with the largest number of facets.
Among them, 14 sides are engraved with inscriptions. The inscriptions range from one-character to five-character. The functionality is differentiated, including the use in official letters, orders, document labeling, etc.
The jet, a composite organic gem, from which the seal is carved, is known in China as “coal jade” (煤玉).
The total height of the object is 4.5 cm, the width is 4.35 cm, and the weight is 75.7 g.
The seal was accidentally discovered in 1981 by Song Qing, a student from Xunyang county (旬陽縣), Ankang, Shaanxi. While returning home from school, he picked up a weird object in the gravel on the roadside, which aroused his curiosity with its bizarre shape. Song Qing had no idea what it was. Having examined the inscriptions at home, he gave the find for examination to the local archaeological museum, where the artifact was considered not of particular cultural value.
The seal vegetated on the outskirts of the local exposition for another decade, until it was revealed and recognized by a prominent researcher Wang Hanzhang (王翰章) from the Xi'an Institute of Literature and History. On display in Shaanxi History Museum (陝西曆史博物館).
