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

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an aged, open book page with writing in a non-Latin script, likely Arabic or Persian. The page is yellowed and worn, with darker spots and stains. A rectangular text box contains the main body of text, surrounded by a thin blue and orange border. The text within the box is written in black ink and appears to be in a single column. A smaller section of text is above the text box, also in black ink. The left side of the page has a series of small holes and stitching, indicating that the pages are sewn together. A small piece of paper is taped to the top of the page.
