Text, folio 401 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

Yellowed parchment page with brown ink writing in an ancient script, likely Greek. The text is arranged in lines, with some larger letters and decorative elements. The page has visible signs of aging, including stains, discoloration, and wear along the edges. The paper is slightly wrinkled and has a rough texture. The binding is visible on the left side, consisting of a thin strip of material that holds the pages together. The background is a plain gray surface, providing a neutral backdrop for the aged manuscript.
