Page from Tales of a Parrot (Tuti-nama): text page

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a yellowed page with black text written in a non-Latin script, likely Arabic or Persian. The page is divided into two sections by a thin line. The top section contains 17 lines of text, while the bottom section contains 9 lines. The text is written in a flowing calligraphic style, with intricate lettering and diacritical marks. The page has a worn and aged appearance, with visible signs of wear and tear, including brown spots, discoloration, and a rough texture. A thin red and blue border frames the page, adding a touch of color to the otherwise monochromatic design. The overall effect is one of elegance and sophistication, suggesting that the page is from a valuable and historic manuscript, specifically a page from Tales of a Parrot (Tuti-nama): text page, by an unknown artist.
