Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an open book with yellowed pages. The left page displays a colorful illustration of the Nativity scene, depicting the Virgin Mary, Joseph, and a woman in a pink dress next to a manger with a lamb. The illustration features a gold background with a floral border. The right page contains black musical notes on red lines, written in a medieval script, with the top-right corner displaying the number 3. The book's cover is not visible, but metal clasps are seen on both sides of the pages.
