Cleveland Museum of Art

Yellowed pages from a book with black text and colorful illustrations. The left page has a border with green leaves and blue, red, white, and purple flowers. Two brown rabbits are dancing at the bottom. The right page has a similar border with blue, red, white, and purple flowers and green leaves. A winged cherub picks a strawberry at the bottom. The text is written in an old-fashioned style with decorative lettering. The pages have a beige background with darker edges. The illustrations are colorful and ornate, suggesting a medieval or Renaissance-era manuscript. The pages appear to be from a prayerbook or psalter. The text and illustrations are intricate and detailed. The pages are side by side.
