Below, his dappled tan horse Rakhsh rears and strikes out with its hooves at a reddish-brown lion lunging up from the undergrowth, teeth bared. Small blue, red and purple flowers dot the grass, and pink blossom covers the tree at the left under a plain blue sky. Persian nasta'liq text fills ruled panels above and below the scene.\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.
