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

Cleveland Museum of Art

Yellowed paper with black ink writing in a foreign script, likely Arabic or Persian, arranged in lines. Text is written in a flowing cursive style. The page has a thin orange border around the edges, with thicker orange lines at the top and bottom. A fainter orange line runs along the inside of the border. The paper appears aged, with darker spots and discoloration throughout. The image seems to be a page from an old book.
