Leaf from a Buddhist Manuscript (recto)

Cleveland Museum of Art

Long, tan-colored rectangular object with uneven edges. The object has a smooth surface with writing and marks on it. The writing appears to be in a language that is not Latin-based, possibly in a script used for an Asian language. The writing is mostly black, with some red marks throughout. There are two circular holes, one on the left and one on the right, each surrounded by a red circular design. The background of the image the object is on is a solid light beige color. The object is likely a leaf from a Buddhist manuscript, with no images or illustrations present. The style of the writing and design suggests an Asian origin. The overall appearance suggests an aged, possibly old or antique, item. This is "Leaf from a Buddhist Manuscript (recto)" by an unknown artist.
