The image shows two pages from an old book. The left page has a picture of an angel with brown hair wearing a blue shirt and pink cloak. The angel has a gold halo and gold wings, and is holding their right hand to their chest. Below the angel are large red letters that say "IBER". The page has a border with blue, green, and red designs. The right page has writing in red and black ink. The writing is in columns and includes red headings. The pages are yellowed and worn, with some tears and discoloration. The pages appear to be made of parchment or vellum. The background of the image is beige.
