Amir Khusraw Dehlavi (1253-1325), the "Parrot of India", is considered the greatest Persian language poet of medieval India. His knowledge of Arabic, Persian, Turkish and Hindi allowed him to produce an exciting new repertoire of literary puns and wordplays in his lyrics, panegyrics and epics (Annemarie Schimmel, "Amir Kosrow Dehlavi", E. Yarshater (ed.), Encyclopaedia Iranica, vol.1, Pennsylvania, 1989, pp.963-965).

The style and palette of illumination found on the opening frontispiece of the this copy relates closely to that found in Shirazi manuscripts of the late 15^th century. An illustrated Mihr O Mushtari of Muhammad 'Assar Tabrizi dated AH 895 / 1490 AD with similarly illuminated opening bifolio was sold in these Rooms 1 May 2025, lot 37.
