Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an open book with a page of text and a decorative border. The page has a beige background with darker spots and stains. The text is written in black ink and occupies the left two-thirds of the page. The text is in a medieval language, possibly Latin, and appears to be written in a formal script. The text is organized into lines and paragraphs with small red and blue decorations between some of the lines. The decorative border is on the right side of the page and features blue, green, red, and gold colors. The border has a floral design with leaves and flowers. The border starts from the top right corner and extends down the right side of the page. The book's pages appear aged and yellowed. The image is well lit.
