Surat al-Fatihah and the beginning of Surat al-Baqarah, from a Quran signed and dated to June 1427 in Iran.  This book was copied by Ibrahim Sultan (1394–1435), grandson of Timur and governor of Shiraz, who was a patron of the book arts and an accomplished calligrapher in his own right. Ibrahim Sultan is said to have copied at least five manuscripts of the Qur'an and to have composed the calligraphic inscriptions for two schools he established in Shiraz.
