Notlar	Salm and Tūr send an envoy to the court of their father Farīdūn, from the Book of Kings (Shāhnāma) by Firdausī (d. 1020). This court scene continues the story of Farīdūn, in Firdausī’s Book of Kings. Now ruling Iran as a just and noble king, Farīdūn decides to split his kingdom among his three sons. This turns out to be a mistake that will end in tragedy. His two older sons are disgusted when each is appointed to rule a distant region, while Farīdūn's youngest son receives the central lands of Iran. Here, the two brothers send a messenger to their father’s court, to complain. Anxiety fills the faces of both king and messenger, while the others seem blissfully unaware of the conflict that will surely follow. Folio, ink, colours and gold on paper, Persian text in nasta`liq script, with illuminated panels and rubric ("Salm and Tūr send an envoy", all on recto) and painting (on verso), with gold-painted borders, from the Book of Kings (Shāhnāma) by Abū al-Qāsim Firdausī (d. 1020), attributed to the early reign of Safavid Shah `Abbās I (r. 1587-1629), Qazvin or Isfahan, Iran, undated, c. 1590-1600. This is one of twenty-two folios in the Chester Beatty, all from the same partial copy (possibly never fully completed) of Firdausī's Shāhnāma: ten folios are in a modern binding, twelve are mounted separately. Most of these folios are not directly sequential, and fall into three sets, narrating the earliest kings, Farīdūn and his descendants, and Rustam.
