Indian copy, not a bad calligraphy,of two manuscripts in one binding.

The binding of dark red leather with a flap in very poor condition, rather worn and worm eaten.<\/p>
We have here a very curious example of a typical commercial product, or two pieces by the same craftsman, who probably had perhaps survived bankruptcy. There is no colophon and no incipit. The work is divided into four jild, hence four 'unvans with pretty luxurious double page illumination with lots of gold on the margins and interlinear 'clouds' round the texts.
