Unknown - Persian Poetry Anthology - 1760
A fine illuminated miniature from an anthology of Persian poetry written C1760. Although the actual Esther in unknown, the damaged and incomplete anthology contained works from As'di Amir Khusrao and Jami. It is written in black nasta'liq (with occasional blue text) and has a striking header written in blue Thuluth within a gold cartouche surrounded by a blue floral border. There is also a charming illustration in gold to the lower left margin containing two ceremonial birds within a floral surround. the whole is encased in a double gold frame.
This is a very unusual and decorative item that would be a great addition to a collection or make a super gift.
