拍品专文

The paper on which this manuscript is copied is watermarked with an Arabic inscription which clearly gives two French names. They might transcribe as 'Collar and [wa] Prangey'?. Another 19th century Moroccan manuscript, which sold at Christie's South Kensington, 10 October 2014, lot 365 was copied on similar paper.
