What does the picture of the tiger in the link below mean?

I would like to know what is written in arabic and it’s english translation. I believe its a text from the Quran.
The picture is drawn by Hassan Musa.
Thank you
what is written in tiger picture is “نمر”
it means tiger
its not from quran, but written in one of traditional Islamic fonts, so it feels like quran
take a look at the swan picture right under the tiger picture, this is quran “بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم” it means in the name of merciful God.
by the way, this site is amazing, thnx for making me see it, the pictures are unbelievable.
