Text, folio 154 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a very old book opened to a page with writing in it. The book's cover is not visible, but the pages are off-white and yellowed with age. The page on the right has a large block of text written in brown ink. The text is in a language that appears to be Greek. The handwriting is cursive and intricate. The text is arranged in lines, with each line containing several words. There are some decorative elements along the top edge of the page. The page is worn and torn in places, with visible signs of aging and use. The background of the image is dark gray.
