Örnek Metin	Medallion (shamsa) and text with illuminated borders, from the History by Bal`ami (Tarikh-i Bal`ami). This illuminated medallion marks the first page-opening of this magnificent book, and the text itself begins overleaf, framed within an illuminated border. The medallion on the right has been salvaged from a slightly earlier manuscript, and has been pasted very subtly onto this page. The medallion on the left (shown here) is therefore a careful copy, made in 1470, along with the rest of this manuscript. Writing in late tenth century Bukhara at the Samanid court of Mansur ibn Nuh (r. 961-976), the minister and historian Muhammad al-Bal`ami composed a new work in Persian, translating and supplementing The History of the Prophets and Kings (Ta'rikh al-Rusul wa'l-Muluk, in Arabic) by the `Abbasid scholar Abu Ja`far Muhammad al-Tabari (d. 923). This illustrated copy of Bal`ami's history (Tarikh-i Bal`ami) was produced in Timurid Herat, in the year 1470. Folio, colours and gold on paper, single radiating medallion (on recto), and incipit Persian text in nasta`liq script with illuminated borders, right side of a double-page composition (on verso), from History of Bal`ami (Tarikh-i Bal`ami), Herat, Afghanistan, dated Sha`ban 874H, February 1470. This is one of seven folios detached from its codex, which is also in the Chester Beatty Persian collection (Per 144).
