EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the heartbreaking scene of Rostam mourning the death of Sohrab, beautifully illustrated by Abu l-Qasim Manur Firdawsi. Taken from the Shahnama (Book of Kings), this 17th-century Persian masterpiece captures a moment filled with profound sorrow and grief. In this poignant depiction, we witness Rostam, a valiant warrior and Sohrab's father, kneeling beside his fallen comrade on a desolate battlefield. The aftermath of their fierce battle is evident in the wounded soldiers scattered around them. Sohrab lies motionless, mortally wounded by his own father's hand without knowing their true relationship until it was too late. The miniature painting skillfully conveys the emotional turmoil experienced by Rostam as he cradles his dying son in his arms. His face reflects anguish and regret for causing such pain to someone he held dear but had never known before that fateful encounter. Every brushstroke tells a story of tragedy and loss; every detail invites us into this heart-wrenching moment frozen in time. The artist's use of gouache on paper adds depth and intensity to the composition, enhancing our connection to these characters' plight. This artwork serves as a reminder of the fragility of life amidst conflict and war. It prompts contemplation about how misunderstandings can lead to irreversible consequences while evoking empathy for those affected by such tragedies throughout history.
