Another manuscript copied by Pir Husayn al-Khatib is a Khamsa of Amir Khusraw in the Walters Art Gallery (W.622, https://art.thewalters.org/browse/creator/pir-hussein-al-katib-shirazi/). That example is dated AH 935/1529-30 AD. A copy of Nizami's Khamsa by the same scribe is in the Aga Khan Collection (Anthony Welch and Stuart Cary Welch, The Arts of the Islamic Book. The Collection of Prince Sadruddin Aga Khan, London, 1982, p.76).
