Letter Q c. 16th century

Editor: Here we have "Letter Q" by an anonymous artist, found at the Harvard Art Museums. The figure within the letter has a very regal air. What's your take on it? Curator: It's an intriguing glimpse into a world where even letters were imbued with meaning. That fleur-de-lis pattern suggests royalty, but it also reminds me of a deck of cards. Does this 'Q' stand for 'Queen,' or perhaps something else entirely? I wonder what story this letter was meant to tell. Editor: That's a cool idea to think of it as part of a story! Curator: Exactly! It makes me wonder what other letters might be hiding in plain sight, waiting to be decoded.
