Text, Folio 8 (recto), from a Kalpa-sutra

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an aged, yellowed manuscript page with black text written in a non-Latin script, likely Devanagari. The page has a beige background and is oriented horizontally. There are two red vertical stripes, one on each long edge. The text on the page is arranged in lines that run horizontally across the page. The lines of text are written in black ink and appear to be written in the same script throughout. There are red accents throughout the text, including a large red circle near the center of the page. The page appears to be old and worn, with visible signs of aging and wear. The background behind the manuscript page is gray. The title of the manuscript is "Text, Folio 8 (recto), from a Kalpa-sutra" and the artist is unknown.
