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

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a yellowed page from an old book with black text written in a language that appears to be Arabic or Persian. The page has a rectangular shape with a thin red line border. The text fills most of the page, occupying about 18 lines, with two sections separated by a horizontal line near the middle. The top section contains a larger block of text, while the bottom section contains more text with a smaller block in the center. The background of the page is a light brown color, with some darker brown spots and discoloration throughout, suggesting age. The overall appearance suggests an old manuscript or printed book. The title of the work is "Tales of a Parrot" or "Tuti-nama". The text appears to be from the artist unknown.
