If it's not too much trouble
(suppo.fi)
Ok, but why the flag hat?
To show which way the wind is blowing
Maybe that's an E, but the rest isn't text, it's sheet music. It's a shame it's cropped because, although I've seen a bunch of example of illuminated texts, I've not often seen such embellishments on sheet music.
to quote my incredibly hilarious husband on the topic of a similar work: "When you are the printer, the whole world must accept your typeface."
E for die Ente, the German word for duck 🦆
De eend, in Dutch
Let’s see AI come up with something that unique and weird

Needs more snails.
The flag is waving the wrong way if this was even a possibility. Nice touch for the absurdity.
Maybe the wind is blowing faster than the duck is flying
The duck might not even be flapping; just being used as a sail.
It's E as in "E's usin a duck ta sail"
Look, they didn't have television, movies, or games back then!
They had theatre and games. Why do you think they did not?
Have you ever been so bored you paid people to enact a play, spur-of-the-moment?
Bored enough, yes, but I didn't have the money. Later rich enough, but I wasn't ever that bored.
En is for duck pulling boat!
