Mantiq al-tair (Language of the Birds) (MET 63.210)

"This copy is notable for its high-quality illustrations produced in two distinct periods and places.
[1] The earlier phase, in which most of the text and four of the paintings were executed, is linked to the city of Herat (folios 63.210.28, .35, .44, .49). Its colophon (63.210.1), signed by Sultan ‘Ali al-Mashhadi, dates the work to the first day of the fifth month of the second year of the last ten years preceding 900—that is, to A.H. 892/April 25, 1487 A.D." in Metropolitan Museum of Art
