Incidentally, the images you've posted are absolutely exquisite, but for purposes both of intellectual property rights and the greatest usefulness as references to the forum members and readers, please provide an attribution -- title of the piece, name of the artist, and any other pertinent information, such as the collection in which the piece resides, if you happen to know. If the image was scanned from a particular text or catalog or borrowed from a website, it would be appropriate to give credit to that source as well, as very often those publishers have done a lot of their own work on the image to maximize its appearance (and as such, have their own intellectual property rights in their enhancements, which should be acknowledged.)
