Book of Hours (Use of Rouen): fol. 89r

Master of the Geneva Latini

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image depicts a yellowed page from an old book, featuring a vibrant border on the right side. The border contains blue, gold, green, and red floral designs on a white background. The left side of the page consists of black text written in an old-fashioned font, with blue, gold, and red decorative elements separating the sections of text. The text is arranged in columns, with approximately 25 lines of text on the page. The page itself exhibits signs of aging, with visible stains and discoloration throughout. A circular brown spot, likely a stain or watermark, is present on the upper right side. The overall appearance suggests an illuminated manuscript, specifically a page from the "Book of Hours."
