Text, folio 314 (recto), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

Open book with yellowed pages. Dark-brown ink used for text that appears to be in a language using the Greek alphabet. Stains are present on the pages, with more pronounced purple stains on upper-right side. The pages exhibit signs of aging with darkened edges. Text is densely packed on the page, suggesting a medieval manuscript. The book appears to be resting on a gray surface. The text includes a decorative border above the main body. Portions of the adjacent page are visible on the left side.
