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

Cleveland Museum of Art

A yellowed, aged manuscript page with a thin double border and thicker inner and outer borders. The top section contains dense text written in black calligraphy in a language that appears to be Arabic or Persian script on a light brown background with darker brown spots. The bottom section features similar writing but is less dense. A geometric design with intersecting lines and text in black calligraphy overlays the lower right corner. The overall appearance suggests an ancient or historical document. Tuti-nama.
