Notlar	The amorous painter burns his cloak, folio from Lights of Canopus (Anvar-i Suhayli), a reworking of the animal fables Kalila and Dimna (Kalila wa Dimna), composed by Husayn Va`izi Kashifi. A painter made himself a black and white cloak, as a disguise when meeting secretly with his lover, a rich merchant's wife. Their system failed when the painter's slave borrowed the cloak, and visited the merchant's wife himself. Repenting, the painter burned his cloak. This folio is from a partial copy of the highly-regarded Persian text, written by Husayn Va`izi Kashifi (d.1504-05), a preacher and scholar at the Timurid court in Herat (modern Afghanistan). His patron was Amir Shaykh Suhayli, whose last name is punningly inserted into the new title. Writing in a sophisticated court style, Kashifi composed an updated version of these lively animal fables, which have a long transmission history going back to Persian, Arabic and Sanskrit versions. This manuscript was made in Mughal India, and features 96 paintings (mounted separately).
