This page shows a small painted scene under neat columns of Persian script. Six men stand in a flat landscape, some holding objects like a scroll or a fan. One man rides a horse, another waves his arms, and a third looks down. The colors are bright but faded—reds, blues, and golds—with a greenish ground. The top half is all text, framed in red. The scene looks like a moment frozen in time, maybe a story or a performance. The horse’s saddle and the men’s robes suggest a specific place and time, but it’s hard to say exactly what’s happening. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more pages like this.
