About The Artwork
ANANTIQUE SAFAVID SHAHNAMEH ISLAMIC PERSIAN MINIATURE PAINTING MANUSCRIPT Safavid Persian miniature painting: A leaf from Shahnameh (The book of kings) by Firdawsi (c. 977-1010) Produced around 1600 A.D. Natural colours and gold. With poetic verses on both sides, excellent Persian calligraphy. Dimensions of frame: 42.5 x 52.5 cm Shipping with frame The Shahnameh or Shah-nama ("The Book of Kings") is a long epic poem written by the Persian poet Ferdowsi (between c. 977 and 1010 AD) and is the national epic of the Iran (Persia) and the Persian speaking world. Consisting of some 50,000 verses, the Shahnameh tells mainly the mythical and to some extent the historical past of the Persian empire from the creation of the world until the Islamic conquest of Persia in the 7th century. Today Iran, Persian speakers of the neighboring nations such as Afghanistan and Tajikestan, and the greater region influenced by the Persian culture celebrate this national epic. The work is of central importance in Persian culture, regarded as a literary masterpiece, and definitive of ethno-national cultural identity of Iran. It is also important to the contemporary adherents of Zoroastrianism, in that it traces the historical links between the beginnings of the religion with the death of the last Sassanid ruler of Persia during the Muslim conquest and an end to the Zoroastrian influence in Iran.
