No. 3451 Zals duck shoot before his meeting with Rudaba
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This 16th-century illustration from the Shahnama (Book of Kings) transports us to a momentous scene in Persian history. Painted by Abu l-Qasim Manur Firdawsi, this gouache on paper print showcases the talents of the Persian School and is now housed at the prestigious Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge. In this exquisite artwork, we witness No. 3451 Zals preparing for an important encounter with his beloved Rudaba. Set against a picturesque landscape featuring a serene river, Zals stands poised with his bow and arrow as he engages in a duck shoot. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to this ancient tale. The painting not only captures the beauty of nature but also symbolizes love and determination. As parents of Rustam, two legendary figures from Iranian history, Zals and Rudaba's story is intertwined with epic poetry and romance. Ferdowsi's Schahnameh serves as inspiration for this masterpiece, showcasing its significance within Persian culture. The artist skillfully portrays weapons such as arrows to highlight the bravery required by these characters. Through this stunning visual representation, we are transported back in time to experience both the grandeur of Persia's past and the timeless power of love that transcends generations. This print truly encapsulates the essence of Iranian history while paying homage to Firdawsi's enduring legacy.
