Book Description: B. W. Robinson relates the history of the Shahnama's composition, and describes the Windsor manuscript and the circumstances under which it came to Britain. He also provides a lively summary of the narrative to accompany black and white illustrations of every painting. Over 50 of these are also shown in full color plates. Eleanor Sims discusses in detail the likely attribution of the paintings in the Windsor volume, and compares other seventeenth century Shahnama manuscripts; she also examines the wider cultural milieu reflected in the paintings. |
