Text, folio 27 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

The image depicts a photograph of a book's open page. A dark-brown hardcover book lies open on a gray background. The book's cover appears to be made of leather or a leather-like material. The pages are yellowed and aged; the visible page displays lines of dark-brown handwritten text in a language that appears to be Greek. The ink used for the text appears to be deteriorating in some spots, with blotches scattered throughout the page. The image captures the page from a straight-on perspective, revealing the top and bottom edges of the book's pages. A portion of the book's spine and right page are visible along the left and right sides of the image. A semi-transparent piece of tape is applied vertically along the left edge of the book. The book's pages are not straight but rather wavy along the edges.
