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

Cleveland Museum of Art

A page of yellowed parchment with a border of thin lines. The text is written in black ink, with a title or heading at the top written in gold ink. The text is in a non-Latin script, possibly Arabic or Persian, and is written in a formal, cursive style. The text is arranged in lines, with some lines longer than others. The background of the page is a light brown color, with some darker brown spots and discolorations. The page appears to be old and worn, with some signs of aging and wear. The image is likely a scanned or photographed reproduction of an ancient manuscript.
