Grey-blue sky and a pink rock formation show behind the raised slab; blue and grey-purple grounds fill the scene, with columns of black nasta'liq verse in ruled panels at the top and bottom of the page.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe original: folio 158v from a Shahnama (Book of Kings) of Firdausi, probably Isfahan, Iran, 1660s; painting by Mu'in Musavvir. Ink, opaque watercolour, gold and silver on paper. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMu'in Musavvir was a Persian painter who worked in Isfahan from the 1630s to the 1690s. A pupil of Reza Abbasi, he stayed faithful to the Isfahan style of his teacher and avoided the influence of Western painting. He painted figures, animals, and battle and banquet scenes, among them scenes of ordinary people, unusual in Persian painting, and more than 300 paintings and drawings attributed to him survive. In the 1660s he painted illustrations for a copy of Firdausi's Shahnama. His work, including a painting of mythical creatures around a lotus leaf dated 1677, is held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach print is a giclée, printed to order.
