EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a scene from the Shahnama (Book of Kings), an epic Persian poem written by Firdawsi in the 11th century. The artwork, titled "Zal climbs to reach Rudaba" was created during the Timurid period in the 15th century. In this exquisite piece, we witness Zal's determined ascent as he climbs towards his beloved Rudaba. The delicate strokes of ink, opaque watercolor, and gold on paper bring life to their mythical love story. Rudaba, a princess from Kabul, is known for her marriage to Zal and their son Rostam, who would become one of Persia's greatest heroes. The intricate details and ornate decoration reflect the rich tradition of Islamic art prevalent during that era. The Nastaliq script adorns the manuscript with elegance and grace, adding another layer of beauty to this masterpiece. Housed at the Freer Gallery of Art within Smithsonian Institution in the USA, this detached folio is part of a dispersed copy of Shahnama. Its acquisition was made possible through generous contributions from various sources including Dr. Arthur M. Sackler. As we gaze upon this image captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported into a world where myth intertwines with history and love conquers all obstacles. It serves as a reminder of the enduring power that art holds in preserving cultural heritage for generations to come.
