Description

PERSIAN SHAHNAMEH PRINT DEPICTING A ROYAL NAVAL PROCESSION

THIS PERSIAN PRINT, INSPIRED BY THE EPIC NARRATIVES OF THE SHAHNAMEH (BOOK OF KINGS), PRESENTS A STRIKING MARITIME SCENE FEATURING A GRAND MULTI-MASTED SHIP FILLED WITH FIGURES, SYMBOLISING ROYAL AUTHORITY, COLLECTIVE VOYAGE, AND HEROIC ENTERPRISE. RENDERED IN A LINEAR, WOODCUT-LIKE STYLE, THE COMPOSITION EMPHASISES RHYTHM AND ORDER THROUGH REPEATED FORMS OF SAILS, RIGGING, AND FIGURES, EVOKING THE STORYTELLING TRADITION CENTRAL TO PERSIAN VISUAL CULTURE.

THE SHAHNAMEH, COMPOSED BY FERDOWSI AROUND THE 10TH–11TH CENTURY, IS ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT WORKS OF PERSIAN LITERATURE, CHRONICLING THE MYTHICAL AND HISTORICAL KINGS OF IRAN. PRINTS SUCH AS THIS DRAW FROM ITS RICH ICONOGRAPHIC LEGACY, TRANSLATING EPIC TALES INTO ACCESSIBLE VISUAL FORM FOR A WIDER AUDIENCE.

THE AGED PAPER, RESTRICTED PALETTE, AND EXPRESSIVE LINE WORK LEND THE WORK A DISTINCT HISTORICAL CHARACTER, MAKING IT A COMPELLING EXAMPLE OF PERSIAN EPIC IMAGERY AND A COLLECTIBLE REPRESENTATION OF SHAHNAMEH-INSPIRED ART.
