Description
English: This calligraphic fragment includes several verses from Nizami's (d. 614/1218) "Divan" (Compendium of Poems). Script: nasta'liq. The composition, which recalls a number of Safavid calligraphic exercises (siyah mashq) in its formal make-up and calligraphic style, must have been executed during the 16th or 17th century.
فارسی: هر صنمی [نظری] را که برافروختند / جامه بر [به] اندازه تن دوختند
بار [رخت] مسیحا نکشد هر خری / محرم دولت نبود هر سری
