About this work

This is a page of flowing black script on a light brown background. The letters curve and twist in smooth lines, almost like vines. Tiny dots and flourishes decorate the edges of some letters. Around the text, there are small painted flowers in soft blues, pinks, and greens. The page looks old, with some brown edges where it’s worn. The border has a simple gold line with a repeating leaf pattern. Check out more pages like this at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
