Description
English: Colophon from the manuscript of "Gulistan" by Sa'di copied in nastaliq by Sultan Ali Mashadi. The calligrapher’s signature appears in the triangular colophon. Later owners and librarians added their names and comments in various styles of nastaliq. One somewhat clumsy example is located to the right of the triangle.Written by the Mughal ruler Jahangir (reigned 1605–27), the inscription maintains: “This is one of my earliest books. I read it constantly. Written by Nur al-Din Jahangir, son of King Akbar.” Herat, 1486. Art and History Collection LTS1995.2.30, ff. 78v-79r
