Jain artists from the 13th century filled manuscript pages with delicate lines and tiny figures telling stories of gods and heroes. This page shows Hemachandra’s long verse on twos, surrounded by the scribe’s own notes in a precise, tiny script. The date, 1278, is written right on the sheet. Flip to the facing page to see the painted side of the same leaf.
