Book of Hours (Use of Rouen): fol. 54r

Master of the Geneva Latini

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a page from a book with handwritten text and an illuminated border. The page is off-white with darker edges. The text occupies the left two-thirds of the image. It is written in black ink, with some red ink used for accents and one large red letter. The text is in Latin and appears to be written in a Gothic script. The text is divided into paragraphs with some lines indented. The right third of the image features an illuminated border with a floral design. The border is decorated with blue, green, gold, and red patterns. The design includes leaves, flowers, and vines. The overall appearance of the page suggests that it is from a medieval manuscript, possibly a Book of Hours.
