Summary
| Description |
English: Hilye, or calligraphic panel containing a physical description of the Prophet Muhammad, was made in 1130/1718 in the Galata Palace (Saray Galata), Istanbul, by the calligrapher Dihya Salim al-Fahim (This is a mistake in reading the Arabic description which says: "كتبه وذهَّبه: سُلَيم الفهيم", That mean: "Wrote and decorate it: Sulaim al-Fahim", a pupil of Yusuf Efendi. This hilye, mounted on a wooden borard is unusual in having two side panels, similar to a Christian triptych. The central panel displays a textual description of the Prophet Muhammad. The side panels list the 99 names of God. Central panel dimensions: 10.9 (w) x 21.9 (h) cm, each side panel dimensions: 3.2 (w) x 17.2 (h) cm. United States Library of Congress. |
