Khusraw Celebrating after Killing the Dragon
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a stunning page from a 17th century manuscript of the Khamsa, a collection of poetic stories by the Persian poet Nizami Ganjavi. The image depicts the moment of triumph for Khusraw, the monarch of Iran and the hero of this particular tale. With an opaque watercolor ink on paper, the unknown artist masterfully brings to life the scene of Khusraw's victory over a mythical beast - a dragon. The king, dressed in royal robes and wearing a crown, is shown standing on the back of the slain dragon. His victorious expression is etched on his face as he raises his arms in celebration. The dragon, with its menacing features and sharp claws, lies beneath him, defeated. The scene is further adorned with the depiction of five treasures - Panj Ganj - that the dragon had guarded, now scattered around the victorious monarch. The background of the scene is filled with a floral and flowered design, adding a touch of beauty and tranquility to the otherwise violent and triumphant moment. The presence of both men and women in the crowd, cheering and celebrating, further emphasizes the significance of the event. This image, a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the Middle East, is a beautiful example of Islamic art from the Safavid Empire. It is a reminder of the mythological tales and heroic figures that have shaped the history and literature of Iran and the Middle East. The page is now a part of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's collection and continues to inspire awe and wonder among art and literature enthusiasts.
