Ajā’ib al-makhlūqāt wa-gharā’ib al-mawjūdāt.
A bullock, labelled baqar al-ma' ('cattle of the sea'). Below: a long fish. From a copy of ‘Ajā’ib al-makhlūqāt wa-gharā’ib al-mawjūdāt (Marvels of Things Created and Miraculous Aspects of Things Existing) by al-Qazwīnī (d. 1283/682). Neither the copyist nor illustrator is named, and the copy is undated. The nature of paper, script, ink, and illustrations suggests that it was produced in western India in the 18th century.
