Text, Folio 137 (verso), from a Manuscript of the Perfection of Wisdom in Eight Thousand Lines (Ashtasahasrika Prajnaparamita-sutra)

Cleveland Museum of Art

Long, narrow, light-brown colored rectangular piece of paper or parchment with slightly rounded edges and rough, uneven surface. Two small holes are present in the center. The surface contains black, written text arranged in lines. There are three sections of text with a small gap between the first and second sections, and another gap between the second and third sections. The text appears to be in an ancient language and is written in a formal, cursive script. The background behind the paper is a plain light gray color.
