Cleveland Museum of Art

Text, folio 84 (recto), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries by an unknown artist. The image shows an open, aged book with yellowed pages. The page displays handwritten text in a language that appears to be Greek. The text is written in brown ink and consists of multiple lines of cursive script. The handwriting is dense, with little to no spacing between lines. A large decorative letter "P" is visible on the left side of the page. The page number "84" is handwritten in pencil in the top-right corner. The book's pages exhibit signs of aging, including dark spots and discoloration. The background of the image is dark gray. The book appears to be resting on a flat surface.
