Text page from a Tuti-nama (Tales of a Parrot)

Cleveland Museum of Art

A worn yellowed text page with brown stains, containing black ink writing in a foreign script, likely Persian. The page has a thin red and yellow border. The text is divided into lines and appears to be written in a calligraphic style. The background of the page is aged and discolored, with darker brown splotches. A darker line runs along the right side. The overall appearance suggests an old manuscript. The text appears to be from a book titled "Tuti-nama (Tales of a Parrot)" by an unknown artist.
