ملاحظات The poem on this drum makes it clear that it was used in falconry, an activity restricted to men of the highest rank. The skin stretched over it was 'rosy-coloured'. When beaten, the drum disturbed the birds that were to be the falcons' prey. The swirling bands on the body each contain a different pattern. This piece illustrates a new type of brassware with fine, engraved decoration that emerged in Iran around 1550. Human and animal motifs, absent since before 1400, reappeared. Stylised plants and other ornament appeared in relief against a hatched ground, originally filled with a black compound. The decoration was often arranged in bands or cartouches that matched the shape of the object. Poetic inscriptions in the elegant ‘nasta’liq’ style of Persian calligraphy were also common.
نص عينة NoteHemistichs from a mystical poem with an interplay of meanings are calligraphed innasta aliq. They refer to the hawking drum and its musical theme. Translations from A.S. Melikian-Chirvani.Islamic Metalwork from the Iranian World: 8th- 18th Centuries. (London, 1982), If the beat of thy hawking drum O King (?) reaches its ears / The phoenix will shy from Mount Qaf, 'twill fall from its eyrie, O Lord, may they health be lastingly perfect / May an auspicious fate, good fortune and exalted position be yours everlastingly, To serve as thy hawking drum O King of the Time / May the Universe provide a golden bowl from the Zenith of the sky / Observe that drum and rose coloured veil / 'Tis like an eye that has become suffused with blood
