At the centre a black-bearded crowned king in a cream-and-gold floral robe sits holding a long dark sword; beside him a white-bearded crowned elder stands in a gold robe ringed with blue medallions. At the right a bare-chested captive in white trousers stands with his arms bound. Columns of black script fill ruled panels above and below, set on a black mat within a blue border flecked with gold.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Shahnama, or Book of Kings, is the Persian national epic: a verse history of Iran from its first kings to the Arab conquest, completed around 1010 by the poet Firdausi of Tus (c. 940–1020). Its illustrations were painted in later centuries for the rulers and patrons who commissioned copies. Illustrated manuscripts survive from the Ilkhanid period onward, from the First Small Shahnama of the early fourteenth century to Shah Tahmasp's great copy made in Tabriz, and later volumes from Qazvin, Herat and Bijapur in the Deccan. Leaves from these dispersed manuscripts are held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrinted as a museum-grade giclée on Hahnemühle fine art paper using 12-ink archival pigment printing.
