Text, Folio 43 (recto), from a Kalpa-sutra

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an aged, rectangular piece of paper with writing on it. The paper has a light-brown color and appears to be old and worn, with visible signs of aging. The writing on the paper is in black ink, with some red ink used for accents or highlights. The text is written in a non-Latin script, possibly Devanagari. The text is arranged in lines that run horizontally across the page. There are two vertical red lines, one on either side of the page. A large red circle is in the center of the page. There is a white spot in the lower-left corner. The background behind the paper is plain white.
