A vertical vellum page features Latin script in black and red, bordered by dense vines and tiny flowers. On the left, large decorative initials have gold leaf backgrounds. At the bottom, a blue creature with a long red tongue holds an open book. Along the right border, a green winged creature with a blue and red head perches among small birds, all set against the aged parchment.
