The Gotha Missal: Fol. 105v, Text

Master of the Boqueteaux

Cleveland Museum of Art

Open book with yellowed pages, featuring two facing pages with text written in black ink. The text is organized into columns; four on the left and three on the right. The pages have decorative elements: - Large, intricately designed letters in red, blue, and gold at the beginning of sections. - Smaller, similar designs throughout the text. - Vines and floral patterns in the margins, extending into the text area. The pages show signs of aging: - Discoloration around the edges. - A darker area on the right edge, suggesting wear. The book is set against a dark background, with a white border at the top and bottom. A small number "105" is visible in the upper right corner. The book's binding appears worn and browned.
