The Gotha Missal: Fol. 9v, Text

Master of the Boqueteaux

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Gotha Missal, Fol. 9v, Text by Master of the Boqueteaux, shows two pages of a book opened to reveal handwritten text on both sides. The pages are off-white with dark text. The text is written in a medieval script style. Roman numerals 'XII' are at the top of each page in gold and blue ink with decorative swirls around them. The rest of the pages are filled with columns of smaller text. The pages appear old and worn with visible signs of aging, darker edges and surface creases. The book has a dark brown cover with visible signs of wear on the left side. The background of the image is dark gray.
