This image is from a photo plate in 1868 from the Codex Vaticanus.  This original ending of Mark's Gosepl is from the early 3rd century, was copied/printed in Egypt, perhaps Alexandria, and taken to the Vatican shortly after the establishment of the Vatican Library by Pope Nicholas V in 1448 - perhaps by Cardial Bessarion, who labored for the reunion of the Greek and Latin churches.  This piece of Mark XVI. 3-8 was originally catalogued in the Vatican Library in 1475.
