Calligraphy: A Page of Text from Sadi's Bustan (verso)

The image shows a page of text from Sadi's Bustan. The page is divided into sections with black text written in a foreign language, likely Arabic script, on a gold background with a pattern. The text is arranged in four sections, separated by thin gold lines with small circular designs. A decorative blue and gold section with red accents separates the top and bottom sections. The page has a red border with a thin gold line along the inner edge and a thicker blue border with a thin gold line along the outer edge. The borders are slightly worn and faded. The overall design and style suggest an illuminated manuscript, likely from the Middle East or South Asia. The page appears to be yellowed with age and has some small stains. The image seems to be a reproduction or scan of an original manuscript page.
