18756967Persia: Unpublished 1875. No Binding. Near Fine. 8x14.5cm Six Persian miniatures apparently retelling the Barburama the life story of Emperor Babur founder of the Moghul dynasty. Each of the leaves is 11x17.5cm with an inset tempera painting set within a triple red frame 8x14.5cm. Overleaf manuscript in Farsi written in black ink with red ink underlining. Condition: a couple of wormholes to margins and on the verso mounting tape running along the head of the manuscript pages. Excellent bright images.
