The young man of Baghdad joins the Hashimi’s boat as a sailor to find his slave-girl on board, from a Tuti-nama (Tales of a Parrot): Forty-eighth Night
The image depicts a colorful illustration of a boat scene with a group of people on board. The boat is brown and curved, floating on dark blue waves. There are two raised platforms on either side of the boat, one with a bearded man wearing a blue and orange robe and another with a woman dressed in orange. In the center of the boat, there are five people: one man with a green robe rowing the boat; a woman in a blue dress; a man in a yellow robe; another man in a yellow robe; and a man with a blue turban. The background features a tree-lined shore with pink mountains. A section at the top contains black foreign script on a beige background. The entire scene is framed by a beige border with thin red and black lines.
