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

Cleveland Museum of Art

A page with a thin red border and a slightly thicker black border. The background of the page is yellowed with age. The text on the page is written in black ink and appears to be in a language that uses Arabic script. The text fills the entire page and wraps to multiple lines. There are some darker spots on the page, possibly from ink. The overall appearance suggests an old manuscript or book page, likely from the Middle East or South Asia. The title of the work is "Tales of a Parrot" and the specific page shown is labeled as "text page".
