Description
العربية: مِثالٌ عن الكتابة التناظريَّة (حيثُ تعكسُ الحُروف بعضها وكأنها أمام المرآة)، وهي عبارة عن مخطوطةٍ عُثمانيَّةٍ تعود للقرن الثامن عشر الميلاديّ، تظهرُ عليها الشهادة الثالثة عند الشيعة، أي: "عليٌّ وليُّ الله"، بالكتابة العربيَّة المعهودة والمعكوسة، مما يخلقُ تأثيرًا كتأثير المرآة بالنسبة للناظر. قام الخطَّاط بطيّ هذه الورقة السميكة قشديَّة اللون من وسطها بشكلٍ عموديّ فطُبعت العبارة ذاتها على الطيَّة المُقابلة (سليم 1979م، 162) ثُمَّ ألصقها على كرتونةٍ لتقويتها، وأخيرًا أضاف إطارٍ ورديٍّ حولها لتجميلها.
English: Example of mirror writing in Islamic calligraphy. 18th-century Ottoman levha, or calligraphic panel, which depicts the Shi'i phrase 'Ali is the vicegerent of God' (Arabic: علي ولي الله) in obverse and reverse, creating a mirror image. The calligrapher has used the central vertical fold in the thick cream-colored paper to help trace the calligraphic duplication (Selim 1979, 162) prior to mounting it onto a cardboard and pasting rectangular pink frames along its borders.
