One of the most beloved free-to-use photos in the Library's collection is of Brünnhilde, for obvious reasons. We're happy to report that 2023 comes with a freshly digitized photograph of Brünnhilde from another angle. 😻 More of our free-to-use photos: go.loc.gov/mlqO50MhxCu

I am looking for medieval (1000-1500) letter collections from western Europe (England, France, Germany and adjacent regions), with at least 50 letters, if possible 100 or more, possibly related to one person or family. Any suggestions?
