O obrazu
Red vowels and blue diacritical marks guide the reading of this Qur'an Manuscript Folio, made in the thirteenth or fourteenth century and now in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. Its text comes from verses 59–61 of the twenty-fourth chapter, Light. The monumental Maghribi Kufic script belongs to the traditions of Islamic Spain and North Africa. Tall vertical strokes contrast with curved endings that approach semicircles along the left edge. The colored signs indicate pronunciation for a text intended to be read or recited before a gathering.
Slovy muzea
This page from the “Chapter of Light” (24:59–61) in the Qur'an is written in the monumental script of Islamic Spain and North Africa, known as Maghribi Kufic. Words flow rhythmically with curving flourishes toward the left margin where letters end in almost perfect semicircles, an elegant hallmark that contrasts with the upright shafts. Distinctive markings—vowels in red and diacritics in blue—identify the vocalization of the text, which would have been read or recited aloud to an assembly.
