ʻAṣṣār Tabrīzī, Muḥammad, d. 1382 or 3عصار تبريزى، محمد

Persian Manuscripts

<p style='text-align: justify;'>This early copy of <i>Mihr va Mushtarī</i> (Sun and Jupiter), the tale of Mihr, son of Shāhpūr, and his vizier's son Mushtarī, composed by Muḥammad 'Aṣṣār Tabrīzī (d. ca. 1383) opens with a double-page frontispiece that portrays a princely hunting scene, and features five other illustrations as well. A date in the colophon, 10 Muḥarram 788 AH (11 Feb. 1386 Julian), probably pertains to the original completion of the text, not this manuscript, which instead appears to date about a century later.</p>
