Sultan 'Ali Mashhadi (Persian calligrapher, active ca. 1453-1519, died 1520)
|
Note: Sultan 'Ali Mashhadi was an autodidact and orphan although he received later training with Azhar. He worked in the Timurid Court for the ruler Husayn Bayqara (reigned 1470-1506) and patron 'Alishir Nava (1441-1501). Sultan 'Ali produced architectural inscription; an example of his work is seen on the tombstones of the ancestors of Husayn Bayqara in Gazur Gah, Herāt. His Khurasani style of nasta'liq, identified by its fluidity, can be seen in Attar's Mantiq al-tayr (Conference of the birds, 1483) and Sa'di's Būstān (Scented garden, 1488). |
