Text, Folio 17 (recto), from a Kalpa-sutra

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a yellowed, aged manuscript page with handwritten text in a foreign script. The page has a rectangular shape with rough, uneven edges. The text is written in black ink, with some sections in red ink. There are two vertical red lines on either side of the page. The red lines are thicker at the top and bottom than in the middle. A large red circular mark is in the center of the page. The text is arranged in lines that run horizontally across the page. The lines of text are not perfectly straight. The background of the page is a light beige color. The page appears to be old and worn, with visible signs of aging. The image appears to be a page from an ancient or historical manuscript, titled "Text, Folio 17 (recto), from a Kalpa-sutra" by an unknown artist.
