Leaf from a Buddhist Manuscript (recto)

Cleveland Museum of Art

Long, narrow, light-brown rectangular object made of wood or plant material. The object has uneven edges and two round holes in the middle, each surrounded by a red circle. There are several lines of small, black, swirling script written across the surface. The script is written in a curved line from left to right. There are several red marks scattered throughout the script. The background is a plain beige color. The object appears to be an old manuscript leaf, by an unknown artist, titled "Leaf from a Buddhist Manuscript (recto)".
