  Mirza Ali Reza, known as Mirza Agha Jan and his nom de plume Partoe, the poet and calligrapher of thirteenth century (19th century A.D) lived sometime in between the years 1213-1304.  He was one of the outstanding calligraphers of Naser al -Din Shah Court and his calligraphic collection together with his guilded Koran is kept in Malek and Royal libraries. His anthology includes, lyric ghazals, odes, and literary pieces composed on variety of subjects such as praise, description, sermon, and philosophy and was corrected and published by the writer of this article.  The Renaissance Style in Partoe’s Poetry is evident and in this sense it is a reminder of Poetry of Saadi, Hafez and other predecessors.  Also, his mastery in composing historical issues is another characteristic feature of his poetry which is more concerned with the repair and renovation and construction of mosques in Esfehan, and date of death of his contemporary poets which is often called upon by historians.  This article attempts to portray him as a prominent   poet and calligrapher in Gajar period.
