Text, folio 197 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

An open book with yellowed pages, featuring handwritten text in brown ink, appears to be viewed from above at a slight angle. The book's pages are slightly yellowed. A strip of clear tape holds the pages in place on the left side. The book's spine is visible on the left edge, with the pages slightly curled. The text is written in a language that appears to be Greek, with intricate calligraphy and flourishes. The book's cover is not visible, but the pages are worn and aged, suggesting it is an old manuscript. The background is a dark gray surface.
