Text, folio 337 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows an open book with yellowed pages. The book's pages are off-white, with brown edges and darker brown text written in a language that appears to be Greek. The text is handwritten and appears to be in a medieval style. The pages are worn and have visible signs of aging, including wrinkles, creases, and small tears. A translucent tape is stuck to the left side and a dark background is visible behind the book. The book is likely old and valuable.
