Tarih
8 Ẕī-al-Qa‘dah, 45thth year of the reign of Shāh ʻĀlam II, Emperor of Hindustan (b. 1728, r. 1759–1806) (19 Feb. 1804 CE)
Notlar
This illuminated and illustrated anonymous Persian translation of the ʻAjā’ib al-Makhlūqāt va Gharāʼib al-Mawjūdāt (Wonders of Creation and Oddities of Existence), Qazvīnī's famous medieval Arabic cosmography, appears incomplete. It nevertheless contains some 200 illustrations in a refined late Mughal style. The volume consists of two distinct physical segments: an initial portion from folios 1b to 126b, which appears to date to the late Mughal era, with the text completed in a very neat nasta‘līq script, which bears a number of repairs, while the remainder appears in a comparatively hasty hand on entirely different paper stock devoid of restoration. That may indicate that a later patron completed what had been either an unfinished or damaged incomplete manuscript. The colophon indicates the second unidentified scribe completed the volume on 8 Ẕī-al-Qa‘dah, 45th year of the reign of Shāh ‘Alām II (19 Feb. 1804 CE).
