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

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a page from "Tales of a Parrot (Tuti-nama)" by an unknown artist. The page contains black text written in a language that appears to be Persian or Arabic script, possibly Farsi, and is arranged in 23 lines. The text is enclosed within a thin border with a reddish-brown and blue outline. The background of the page is aged and yellowed, suggesting it is an old manuscript. The page has a worn appearance with darker spots and discoloration throughout. The text fills most of the page, leaving little to no empty space. The overall appearance suggests that the page is a scanned or photographed version of an original manuscript.
