Qur'an Manuscript Folio

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a Qur'an manuscript folio. The page has a white background with yellow Arabic calligraphy in the center. The text is arranged in 15 horizontal lines. The text is surrounded by a border with a repeating pattern of red, green, and yellow shapes. The border is thicker at the top and bottom than on the sides. The page has some discoloration and aging effects, including brown spots and a rough texture. There is a small tear on the left side of the page. The overall design and layout suggest an ornate and decorative style. The artist and title are indicated as "Qur'an Manuscript Folio", but the artist's name is not specified.
