Descriptive card

Fragment of the second half of an Andalusi Qur'an (30 lines) with the characteristic square format of the Western-Maghribi tradition. The last folio is a paper folio that was added latter to this manuscript to complete some of the missing fragments. We have described the qur'anic content based on the pictures we managed to find, so we do not present the whole actual content.
