1875 Chromolithograph Arabic Design Rosette Illumination Quran Manuscript LOR1 XEX9 This is an original 1943This is a rare original 1875 color chromolithograph that depicts a variety of traditional Arabic rosettes and other illuminations found in a large, and incredibly ornate, copy of the Islamic Qur'an.
