Leaf from a Buddhist Manuscript (recto)

Cleveland Museum of Art

Rectangular piece of light-brown material, possibly wood or palm leaf, with rough and uneven edges. The material is long and narrow, with a horizontal orientation. Two small circular holes are present, one on the left and one on the right, each surrounded by a red circle. Several short, red lines are scattered across the surface. The majority of the surface is covered in black, cursive writing that appears to be in a language that reads from left to right. The background behind the material is a solid, off-white color. The image depicts a "Leaf from a Buddhist Manuscript (recto)" by an unknown artist.
