Description

A shamsa (literally, sun) traditionally opened imperial Mughal albums. Worked in bright colors and several tones of gold, the meticulously designed and painted arabesques are enriched by fantastic flowers, birds, and animals. The inscription in the center reads: "His Majesty Shihabuddin Muhammad Shahjahan, the King, Warrior of the Faith, may God perpetuate his kingdom and sovereignty."

Esperanto: "Ŝamso" ("suno") tradicie aperis ĉe la komenco de albumoj de la Mogola Imperio. Faritaj en brilaj koloroj kaj pluraj tonoj de oro, la detaleme desegnitaj kaj pentritaj arabeskoj estas riĉigitaj de fantaziaj floroj, birdoj, kaj bestoj. La priskribo en la mezo diras: "Lia Reĝa Moŝto Ŝihabuddin Muhammad Ŝah-jahano, la Reĝo, Militisto de la Religio, Dio daŭrigu lian regnon kaj suverenecon."
