EDITORS COMMENTS
Rustam Slays the White Div: A Heroic Episode from the Shahnama (Book of Kings), 1608 This stunning folio, created in the seventeenth century, depicts the epic tale of Rustam, a legendary hero from the Shahnama or the Epic of Kings, an influential Persian poem written by Abu'l-Qasim Firdawsī in the 10th century. The poem, which celebrates the history and heroism of the Persian monarchs, has been a source of inspiration for artists and writers across Asia for centuries. In this image, Rustam, a valiant warrior, is shown in the act of slaying the White Div, a demonic creature that had been terrorizing the land of Hindoostan. With his powerful horse, Rakhsh, and a sharp dagger in hand, Rustam charges towards the Div, ready to put an end to its reign of terror. The Div, with its horned head and menacing appearance, is depicted in the throes of death, with blood spilling from its wounds. The image is an opaque watercolor, enhanced with gold and ink on paper, and is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Persia and the Indian subcontinent. The intricate details, vibrant colors, and dynamic composition make this folio a masterpiece of Asian art, showcasing the skill and creativity of its unknown creator. The Shahnama, with its timeless stories of heroism, courage, and adventure, continues to captivate audiences and inspire artists and writers around the world. This folio, now housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), is a reminder of the enduring legacy of this epic poem and the cultural heritage it represents.
