Text, folio 118 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an open book with yellowed pages. The book is bound on the left side, and the pages are turned to reveal the right-hand page. The page is filled with handwritten text in a language that appears to be Greek. The text is written in gold ink and is arranged in lines. The handwriting is cursive and intricate. The page has a few dark spots and stains, and the edges are worn and frayed. A piece of clear tape is on the left side of the book. The background of the image is a plain gray surface.
