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

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a yellowed page from the book "Tales of a Parrot (Tuti-nama)" by an unknown artist. The page is filled with handwritten text in black ink, with some red ink used for accents and underlining. The text is written in a non-Latin script, likely Persian or Arabic. The text is arranged in paragraphs and lines, with some sections underlined or highlighted in red. The page has a thin red border around the edges. The background of the page is a light yellow color, with some darker yellow or brown spots and discoloration visible. The bottom section contains more red text than the rest of the page. The majority of the text on the page is written in black. The page appears to be aged and worn, with signs of aging and use.
