Preferably, the entire page with a provenance mark is photographed so one sees the context of use of the mark. Please add a second image with a detail of the specific provenance mark. If a page of the book that you describe contains more than one evidence of provenance, for example two inscriptions by two different former owners, you should create two entries in the PDA, one for each former owner. We hope that in a future version of the PDA, it will be possible to highlight the specific provenance mark you describe. Until then the second image with the detail is required. | Preferably, the entire page with a provenance mark is photographed so one sees the context of use of the mark.
