Text, folio 80 (recto), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

Text, folio 80 recto, from a Gospel Book with Commentaries. The image shows an open, aged book with yellowed pages. The page on the right has a number "80" written in black ink at the top right corner. The text on the page is written in gold ink and appears to be in an ancient language, likely Greek. The text is arranged in lines, with some lines having more text than others. There are some darker spots and stains on the page, possibly from age or water damage. The left edge of the page has a rough, worn appearance, suggesting that the book has been handled extensively. The background of the image is dark gray.
