拍品專文

Inscribed at bottom of final folio: 'Ce livre contienne 436 page, et 20 image, et appartien a M. mirza hassan zindjani. et che les autr person est volle' (sic)

This work is possibly a version of the Jala al-'Uyun of Muhammad Baqir bin Muhammad Taqi Majlisi (d. 1699 AD), largely concerned with the battles and exploits of the Prophet's son-in-law 'Ali.
