The patron of our Qur’an is named in the colophon as 'Ali Khan, a member of a distinguished Qajar family, his father having had a long career as diplomat and governor. He was the governor of Azerbaijan, Fars, and Gilan during Nasir al-Din Shah’s reign and in AH 1287/1870-71 AD was one of the courtiers to accompany Nasr al-Din Shah on a tour of the Shi’ite shrines in Ottoman-governed Iraq.
