Thuluth part of Arabic calligraphy
History
The greatest contributions to the evolution of the Thuluth script occurred in the Ottoman Empire in three successive steps that Ottoman art historians call "calligraphical revolutions":The first revolution occurred in the 15th century and was initiated by the master calligrapher Sheikh Hamdullah.
The second revolution resulted from the work of the Ottoman calligrapher Hâfız Osman in the 17th century.
Finally, in the late 19th century, Mehmed Şevkî Efendi gave the script the distinctive shape it has today.Artists
The best known artist to write the Thuluth script at its zenith is said to be Mustafa Râkım Efendi (1757–1826), a painter who set a standard in Ottoman calligraphy which many believe has not been surpassed to this day.
