Text, folio 131 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

Text, folio 131 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries by an unknown artist. The image shows an open book with yellowed pages. The page on the right has a large block of handwritten text in a language that appears to be Greek. The text is written in a flowing script and covers most of the page. There are some darker spots on the page, likely due to age or water damage. A large numeral "ΠΒ" is visible at the top left. The page is slightly worn at the edges and has a few darker marks around the edges. The book appears to be old and possibly antique. The left page is mostly blank, with a strip of clear tape running down the center. The background of the image is a dark gray color.
