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

Cleveland Museum of Art

A yellowed, aged rectangular page with a thin red border and slightly darker red corner accents. The page is filled with black, handwritten text in a language that appears to be Arabic script, likely Persian or Urdu, written in a flowing calligraphic style. The text is densely packed, covering most of the page with no images or illustrations visible. The handwriting varies in size and style throughout, with some sections appearing more ornate than others. The overall appearance suggests an old, possibly illuminated manuscript.
