This 16th-century illuminated manuscript page, "Anthology of Persian Poetry," is a stunning example of Persian art. Created by the esteemed artist Amir Shahi of Sabzavar, the page showcases a richly decorated frame surrounding verses of Persian poetry written in elegant Nastaliq script. The intricate floral and geometric patterns, rendered in vibrant colors, are a testament to the artistic skill of the Safavid era, with details in gold enhancing the beauty of the composition. The artwork is currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
