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

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a page from a manuscript. The page is rectangular and aged, with a light-brown color and darker brown spots. The text is written in black ink and appears to be in Arabic script. The text is divided into lines, with each line containing several words. There are two thin red lines, one near the top and bottom edges and one on each side, forming a border around the page. The border is not perfectly uniform, with some areas being slightly wider than others. The background of the page is a light-brown color, with some darker brown spots and stains visible throughout. The overall appearance of the page suggests that it is an old, possibly antique, manuscript page from "Tales of a Parrot (Tuti-nama)".
