Summary[edit]

Description
English: SHAMS TABRIZ (D. AH 686/1287 AD): DIWAN

Ilkhanid Iran, early 14th century

Poetry, Persian manuscript on buff paper, 156ff. with 17ll. of sepia naskh arranged in two columns, headings in red, opening folio with inscription dated 738, numerous marginal annotations, slight staining, in 15th century brown moroocco binding with tooled star decoration Folio 9¾ x 7 1/8in. (24.6 x 18.2cm.)

This a very early copy of part of the work of this important Sufi poet. The opening flyleaf contains two inscriptions signed by Muhammad ibn Ahmad al-Maulawi, dated 738 (1337-8 AD) and 750 (1349-50). His name also appears on a partially re-written note on the final folio dated 738, suggesting he may be the scribe of this copy.
Date early 14th century
