- 6. Around one thousand years ago, Ibn Muqlah and his brother created six genres of Iranian calligraphy, namely "Tahqiq", "Reyhan", "Sols", "Naskh", "Toqi" and "Reqa".
- 12. History of cursive Nas'taliq: Morteza Gholi Khan Shamlou and Mohammad Shafi Heravi created a new genre called cursive Nastaʿlīq Shekasteh Nastaʿlīq in the 17 the century. This calligraphy style is based on the same rules as Nas’taliq. However, it has a few significant differences: it provides more flexible movements and it is slightly more stretched and curved. Yadollah Kaboli is the example of this calligraphy.
- 14. Persian Artists and their Calligraphy: Among all those great names in the history of Persian Calligraphy, four figures are the most famous ones: Mierza Mohammad-Reza Kalhor, Amirkhani, Mir-Ali Tabrizi and Mir-Emad.
- 15. Mierza Mohammad-Reza Kalhor: He was born in1828 in city of Kermanshah, western part of Iran. His first mentor was his own cousin who had a nice hand-writing.

- 17. Amirkhani: His full name is Qolam- Hussein Amirkhani and he was born in 1939. He is president of Iranian Calligraphers Committee and the most prominent contemporary master in Nas’taliq style. He also has authored 12 books about Persian Calligraphy and conducted numerous international art exhibits.
- 19. He lived in 14th and 15th century. He is known as father of Nas-Taliq because he invented this beautiful calligraphy style by means of combining two older styles together (Naskh and Taliq) and adding a flavor of nature into it. Therefore, this calligraphy style implemented natural curves rather than Naskh and Taliq styles. Mir-Ali Tabrizi:
- 21. Mir-Emad He is probably the most prominent Persian Calligrapher ever! His full name is Mir-Emad Hassani and lived in 16th century.
