"gold borders within black lines on the first to pages"
Remarks
The manuscript Hs. 16 B 24, an agricultural treatise, shows high-quality illumination on its initial pages despite being an early 18th-century copy (completed 1716). The use of gold leaf or paint for borders is a hallmark of commissioned Ottoman manuscripts (p. 305).
