Hi all:

 

I just wanted to share with you another drawing made with two of my Montblanc 149s. The ink is an old Montbalnc Blue-black, predecessor of the actual Midnight Blue. The paper is a heavy weight Fabriano Fabria. The two 149s are fitted with a beautiful F nib (two-toned, circa 1994), and a classic M (three-toned, circa 2005).

The citation is from Ovidio's Amores, book I, VIII, v. 50.

 

For those of you who like watches, the watch is an Omega Aqua Terra chronograph, with cobalt blue hands and indexes.

Stunning, a meticulous hand and a disciplined mind, a beautiful and brilliant artwork, speaks eloquently of the Artist and his instruments. :happyberet:

Thank You for the treat!

 

 

 

Edit to add: If our dating chart is correct, the 149 with the two toned 14C nib is probably pre 1985. I have a couple, so could not help but notice. :)

Hi Karmakoda, thank you for your kind words. You are correct about dating: the pen with the two-toned nib is not my 149 from circa 1994, but instead my first 149, which I bought new in 1980 for my twentieth birthday. It was originally fitted with an EF nib (I still have it), but I immediately changed it for a very wet F nib, still good today as it was at the beginning. Actually, the 1994 nib I have is effectively a EF, which I also use quite often for both drawing and writing.
