Leaf from a Buddhist Manuscript (verso)
Long, narrow, rectangular piece of light-brown material, possibly wood or palm leaf, with darker brown edges and a wavy bottom edge. The material has two small, round holes, each surrounded by a red circle. The surface is covered in rows of small, intricate, black, cursive-like writing. There are several small, red marks scattered throughout the writing. The background of the image is a plain, off-white color. The overall appearance suggests an ancient or historical manuscript. The text is written in a language that appears to be in a script used for Buddhist texts. The style of the writing and material is consistent with a Buddhist manuscript from an Asian culture. The image shows the back side of the manuscript, referred to as "verso".
