In the 1990s, there was an exhibit at the LA County Museum of art & artifacts from the age of Tamarlane (@14th Century) -- and there were several HUGE hand-done editions of the Koran and/or other Islamic religious books. Not sure whether they were actually larger than 5 feet by 7 feet, but one of them seemed like it was.
