This folio comes from a Persian language dictionary whose patrons were first the Emperor Akbar, who originally commissioned the work, and later the Emperor Jahangir, to whom it was presented in 1623. Mir Jamal al-Din Husayn Inju of Shiraz (d.1626), undertook the epic task to compile a dictionary listing about 10,000 words taken from the works of Persian poets. The Farhang-i Jahangiri is divided into twenty-four chapters arranged alphabetically according to the second letter of each word.
