Text, folio 190 (recto), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an open book with yellowed pages. The book's page displays a handwritten text in a language that appears to be Greek. The text is written in brown ink and consists of approximately 30 lines. The page number "190" is handwritten in pencil in the upper-right corner. The book's cover is not visible, but the pages appear to be old and worn, with visible signs of aging, including darker brown spots and discoloration around the edges. The pages have a rough texture and are slightly curved, suggesting that the book has been handled extensively. The background of the image is a dark gray color.
