A manuscript page with dense black and red text and three prominent red circular marks
Detailed Description
A rectangular, light brown manuscript page is oriented horizontally and densely covered with text. The page has slightly irregular edges. The script is primarily black, with numerous characters and entire lines in red. Three solid, circular red marks are evenly spaced across the page, interrupting the text. One red circle is positioned on the far left, another in the center, and a third on the far right. Each circle is approximately the same size, about one-third the height of the page. The text is arranged in several columns. Narrower vertical columns of black script run along the far left and right edges of the page. The central and largest section of the page contains the main body of text, which is divided into multiple horizontal lines. Within this central section, the script is a mix of black and red characters. Some words or phrases appear entirely in red, while others are entirely in black. The red text appears to emphasize certain parts of the content. The characters are small, intricate, and consistent in style, featuring many curves, loops, and vertical strokes.
