‘After architecture, the major arts of the Timurid period were those of the book: calligraphy,* illumination, miniature painting, and binding. We have seen how these developed in the late Mongol period and came to full fruition in the twin capitals of the Jalayrids, Tabriz and Baghdad. Under Shah Rukh these cities lost their primacy. Baghdad indeed recovered briefly when it was for five years, 1460-05[ce], the seat of government of Pir-Budaq, a Turkman princely connoisseur.’
