Medieval tower bookmark

My new creation are these unique bookmarks depicting the old town hall tower of Sibiu, in Transylvania, Romania. Available in my other Etsy store, the Transylvanian Trove. A shop that wishes to promote the creativity and talent of fellow Transylvanians, past and present.
Entirely handmade linocut prints, several combinations of colors available (in both typographic ink and paper). If you have any preference based on item photos, let me know and I will do my best to accommodate (depending on already sold items). Otherwise, I shall randomly choose.

Souvenir from Cluj linocut bookmark

One of my linocut projects is inspired by my hometown of  Cluj-Napoca, in the heart of Transylvania, Romania. I have not yet seen artistic souvenirs from Cluj, so I thought of creating one, both practical and pleasing: a linocut bookmark inscribed "Cluj" and decorated with a few elements of medieval architecture that, in my opinion, nicely render the atmosphere of the old city centre (namely one of the specific historical monuments, the house where the great humanist King of Hungary Mathias Corvinus was born).

The linocut series is available in my online shop, Atelierul de istorie, for now in a single color variant - brown typographic ink on beige printing paper, signed by the author - AGruia. Check out all the history-inspired bookmarks, both linocut and handmade leather projects, HERE.
