عجايب المخلوقات وغرايب الموجودات

Illustrated copy of a Persian version of Qazwīnī's Book of marvels (version (a) in Storey's description, Persian Literature (1927-), vol. II, 1, p. 125). Table of contents in the preamble (fol. 3a-5b). This copy is illustrated with 180 miniatures (most of them small) and 11 diagrams. Several elements show that this copy is not of the highest quality (text crossed out, ʻunwān left blank or with title written in a rough manner, etc.). In addition, some miniatures are defective (see illustration of the Sun emerging behind the constellation of the Lion, fol. 16b). 244 leaves: paper, col. ill. ; 340 X 240 (268 x 150) mm.
