Text page from a Mirror of Holiness (Mir’at al-quds) of Father Jerome Xavier

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a yellowed, aged page with writing in a non-Latin script. The page features a central text box with a thin blue border and a thicker blue line around the inner edge. The text within the box is written in black ink and appears to be in Persian or another language that uses a similar script. The text is arranged in lines, with some words or phrases possibly set apart in smaller text at the top of the box. The page has a rectangular shape with rough, uneven edges and visible signs of wear, including darker spots and tears. A faint, handwritten number is visible at the top right corner. The background of the image is white, suggesting that the page is being displayed against a neutral backdrop. Small pieces of tape attach the page to a backing on the left side. Three metal rings are on the right, indicating it is part of a bound book.
