About this work

This page is packed with tiny red and black letters arranged in neat rows. Three bright red circles sit at the top of the text, like markers. The paper has a slightly yellowed look, and the edges are framed by a thin red border. The text is likely part of an old religious or instructional book, written in a script that looks like it’s from another time. The circles might stand for something special, like chapter breaks or symbols. Look up The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
