Colophon portrait from the 1595-6 Khamsa of Nizami, signed by Daulat. It shows Daulat (left) and and 'Abd al-Rahim ("Amber-pen"), a scribe, working on the book. 

The colophon from the Khamsa of Nizami is a note at the end of the manuscript that provides information about the scribe, the date of completion, and sometimes additional remarks about the work itself. It was a common practice in medieval Islamic manuscripts to include such colophons as a way of documenting and verifying the text. The Khamsa of Nizami is a collection of five epic poems written by the Persian poet Nizami Ganjavi in the 12th century. The work is considered a masterpiece of Persian literature and has had a significant influence on later works in the region.
