The Reign of Nushirwan, The Combat between the Khan of Chin and the Haitalians (recto) from a Shahnama (Book of Kings) of Firdausi (940–1019 or 1025)

The image depicts a yellowed paper with a central rectangular section containing black text written in a foreign language, likely Arabic script. The text is divided into eight columns, separated by thin red lines. A thin blue border surrounds the text, with a thicker blue line outlining the entire rectangle. The paper has a cream-colored background with darker edges, and small dark spots are scattered throughout. A small piece of black debris is visible in the bottom-left corner. The overall appearance suggests an aged manuscript or book page.
