An early Talismanic Chart, in Arabic, illuminated manuscript on thin paper [Qajar Persia, dated 1218 AH (1803-04 AD)]  single vast sheet, containing a large section of magic squares formed of 100 by 100 molecules (providing 10,000 individual cells), each containing an individual 4-digit magical code in green, orange, blue and red, forming a large geometric diamond pattern, magic squares framed within a three-layered banner, each containing prayers and Qur'anic text, in red, blue and black naskh, all heightened in gilt, some small closed tears to extremities, causing fractional loss to text, overall exceptionally bright and attractive example, c. 640 by 650 mm.; mounted on thicker paper, framed and glazed  Provenance: Property of a private European collector, acquired in Christie's, 2 May 1996, lot 381.These vast charts contain magic squares that were believed to carry protective and talismanic properties. The sheets were often folded up into considerably smaller amulets for the ease of transportation for the carrier; the present example would likely have measured 50 by 70 mm. when folded. Though their use was a popular practice in nineteenth-century Persia, few examples survive as early as the present example appear on the market, with the only two known to us appearing in the early 2000s. Christie's sold a similar but undated chart from the first quarter of the nineteenth century on 14 October 2003 (lot 134) and another containing a more intricate design attributed to the late Safavid or early Qajar period on the 16 October 2001 (lot 63).
