Page from the Prasnapradipa, a Hindu Astrology Text

Cleveland Museum of Art

Yellowed, rectangular piece of paper with rough, uneven edges. The paper is light brown with darker brown spots and has two vertical lines on the left and right sides. The text on the page is written in a non-Latin script, likely Devanagari, and appears to be in black ink. The text is densely packed and covers most of the page, with some words or symbols in the top-left corner and one symbol on the right side near the bottom. The page appears to be aged, with visible signs of wear and tear. It is set against a solid gray background. The title of the work is "Prasnapradipa" and it is a Hindu astrology text.
