Walters manuscript W.613 is a fragment of one of the most important illustrated manuscripts produced for the Mughal emperor Akbar: a copy of the Khamsah (quintet) of Nizami Ganjavi (died 605 AH/AD 1209) copied by the royal scribe 'Abd al-Rahim 'Ambarin Qalam in the 40th year of Akbar's reign (1004 AH/AD 1595). It was most likely executed in Lahore. The larger portion of the manuscript, preserved with the colophon, date, and scribe's name, is housed in the British Library (Or. MS 12208). The Walters fragment contains parts of Khusraw va Shirin and Iskandarnamah, with 5 illustrations. The illustrations bear ascriptions to court artists as well as running numbers from 1 to 44. The Walters folios are inscribed with the following names: Sanvlah, Nanha, Shivdas, Dharm Das, and Bim Gujarati.
