Exquisite hand-illuminated vellum manuscript DS, in German, twelve pages, 10 x 12.5, 1676. Patent of nobility granted to Wolfgang Brahame. Page seven bears an amazing and vibrant hand-painted coat of arms of the family with illuminated borders and depicts royal lions holding a shield containing an eagle, above which is an identical eagle rampant and surmounted with a smaller two-headed eagle, and two smaller shields to top corners. Coat of arms is surrounded in a gold leaf border. Document is signed by Leopold on the last page. In fine condition, with some scattered light toning, foxing, and soiling. A visually attractive document remarkably well preserved!
