A chalipa by Mir Emad

Chalipa (Persian: چلیپا, romanizedchalīpā, lit.'cross') is a panel in the Nastaliq script. There are two important panels in the Nastaliq calligraphy: Chalipa and Siah Mashgh. Chalipa consists of four diagonal hemistiches of a poem, which has clearly a moral, ethic and poetic theme.[1]
