About the Item
Day and Night - Arabic Calligraphy is a precious manuscript with Islamic sacred verses in an ancient calligraphy style.
One page, one-sided, in Arabic, the original sheet ( cm 17x 11) is in excellent condition and under plexiglass, with an ivory-colored passepartout and framed in a ebony frame (cm 34.5 x 2.3 x 28.5).
The script is in black ink with some words in red ink.
The composition of the manuscript includes four-part: the left and the central part of the sheet belongs to bigger words, on the top of the sheet are written small words which are interwoven and quite challenging to read, for the below part of the sheet and the right side of the composition, the situation is the same.
It seems the small words present the praying, left side of the sheet decorative circled phrases.
In the main and big part of script, we can see some words of “Lail Ol- Nahar” and “Men Azaben Nar”, which refers to differences of Day and Night made by God, and avoidance from “Fire Of Hell”. The words in red ink are also “Allah” And “Muhammad” which demonstrate manner of a calligrapher to show his true belief by make a difference in color. Calligrapher creates beautifully this script which just “His God, Allah” and “Prophet Muhammad” are in red ink and through color are separated from words in black ink.
Calligrapher has covered the sheet with all holy words of praying and has not left any empty space, which has made this remarkable piece of art adorable.
In this precious piece of art, calligrapher intended to present the whole world as the sheet of calligraphy: “How the world is full of this holiness and there is no empty space without sign of Almighty God.” These attributes have made this manuscript, magnificent and unique, it suits for who desire to have a mysterious piece of art.

Hardback monograph with illustrated boards and no dust jacket as issued, hand signed by Tracey Emin.
A beautifully designed publication I Lay Here For You, sumptuously illustrated and with a fascinating essay by Katy Hessell, author of The History of Art without Men.
About the project:
Tracey Emin’s first Scottish show since 2008, I Lay Here For You (28 May – 2 October) will offer an intimate encounter with love and hope set against the domestic architecture and informal woodland of Jupiter Artland. Imbued with connotations of both warmth and vulnerability, resonating with Tracey Emin’s belief of the ‘personal as political’ the exhibition will feature brand new work by the artist reflecting on the possibility of love after hardship.
Tracey Emin’s participation in Jupiter Artland’s 2022 season begins with the unveiling I Lay Here For You, a six metre bronze sited personally by the artist in an old-growth beech grove. Larger than life, powerful and at ease, the sculpture presents a radically different view of woman’s place...
