About this work

This image shows two wooden panels covered in faded ink. The top panel has a small, worn painting of a red-robed figure and two antelopes in a simple, flat style. The rest of the panels are filled with neat, handwritten text in an unfamiliar script. The text looks like it’s part of an old religious book, carefully copied by hand. The antelopes in the painting stand side by side, their shapes barely detailed. Check out *The Cleveland Museum of Art* to see this piece in person.
