Image: 19th century manuscript copy, 1704 CE Guru Granth Sahib, Schoyen Collection Norway
Description: The Guru Granth Sahib is the primary scripture of Sikhism. The first edition of Adi Granth was completed in 1604 CE at the behest of Guru Arjan by his scribes. The final edition of the Sikh scripture was finalized by Guru Gobind Singh in 1704. The above photo is of a manuscript copied on paper in early 19th-century, and is now MS 2166 of the Schoyen Collection, near Oslo, Norway. It is written in Punjabi language on paper, Gurmukhi script. This is a photograph of a two-dimensional manuscript copied in early 19th-century from a much older text. Therefore and PD-Art and PD-US-expired guidelines of wikimedia commons apply.
