Text, Folio 7 (verso), from a Kalpa-sutra

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a yellowed, aged manuscript page with text written in black ink and red accents. The page is rectangular, with the top and bottom edges slightly curved. The text is written in a non-Latin script, possibly Devanagari, and is arranged in lines that run horizontally across the page. There are three red circles on the page, one on the left side, one in the middle, and one on the right side. Two red vertical lines run along the left and right sides of the page, with the left line positioned to the right of the left red circle and the right line to the left of the right red circle. The background of the image is a plain gray color, visible around the edges of the manuscript page. The text on the page appears to be from a Kalpa-sutra, with the specific page being Folio 7 (verso). The artist of the manuscript is not visually identifiable from the image.
