This is a copy of the Ruznama or official calendar drawn up on Nowruz, Friday 1st Muharram AH 1221/21 March 1806 AD, for Sultan Selim III.

The calendars consisted of both calendrical and astronomical information according to various calendars (mainly Islamic and Julian but also sometimes other such as Coptic and Alexandrian) as well as prognostications for the sultan and the men of the state for the coming year. The name of the chief astrologer is not given here. A copy of a Ruznama made for Sultan Mahmud II sold in these Rooms, 31 March 2022, lot 110.
