Abdullah at-Khadim - Quran. Sultanate India - 1616

This illustrated leaf is from the Holy book scribed by Abdullah at-Khadim in AD1616. it is in fair condition, but has lost some of the margins to the left of folio and is thinning in places. Where is has thinned, archival paper has been added to the rear of the manuscript to strengthen and preserve the leaf. The format is very typical of a Sultanate India Koran of the early period with expansive headings and large script in fine hand. In this case, there are two large headings in Muhaqqaq, top and bottom of 3 lines of scripture, annotated with simple aya in gold roundels with a blue circumference. In between the script are gold floral decorations and a very unusual patterned decorative band of round and square gold shapes between line 3 of the script and the lower heading. The upper illumination contains a gold cartouche with some very faded script in red. Surrounding this is arabesque gold floral decoration in a background of blue. The lower illumination also has a cartouche with arabesque surround. There is a frame surrounding the scripture in the same arabesque pattern. Please note that shipping costs are not solely the cost of the postal delivery service itself. Included within the shipping price is the work undertaken to prepare the article, for photography, for uploading to Catawiki, for preparation and packaging the article securely and for transporting the article to the postal delivery agent for processing. Also, please consider when bidding on this lot that this artwork is shipped from the UK.

This will likely vary between 5% and 20% of the sale price depending on your country's Import Rate, so please check this if you are concerned.
