(F.A.).Location in text:Mohl 13g, The Great War between Kay Khusrau and Afrasiyab, first line: 1502, break line before: 1526, break line after: 1527.0, last line: 1526.Kay Khusrau learns about Afrasiyab's intention for warFolio number: 294rNotes: Blank space for miniature, following directly on form the previous folio: correct title to be confirmed, currently assigned according to the text (F.A.).Location in text:Mohl 13g, The Great War between Kay Khusrau and Afrasiyab, first line: 1527, break line before: 1526, break line after: 1527.0, last line: 1563.Bizhan kills HumanFolio number: 322vLocation in text:Mohl 13f, The Twelve Rukhs, first line: None, break line before: 816, break line after: 817.0, last line: None.The first combat: Fariburz kills GulbadFolio number: 334vLocation in text:Mohl 13f, The Twelve Rukhs, first line: None, break line before: 1871, break line after: 1872.0, last line: 1873.The tenth combat: Barta kills KuhramFolio number: 337rNotes: The painting is positioned several lines after the action described in the text.Location in text:Mohl 13f, The Twelve Rukhs, first line: 2046, break line before: 2047, break line after: None, last line: 2055.Kay Khusrau fights ShidaFolio number: 350vLocation in text:Mohl 13g, The Great War between Kay Khusrau and Afrasiyab, first line: None, break line before: None, break line after: None, last line: None.The execution of AfrasiyabFolio number: 371rLocation in text:Mohl 13g, The Great War between Kay Khusrau and Afrasiyab, first line: 2405, break line before: 2406, break line after: 2408.0, last line: 2406.Kay Khusrau gives advice to the IraniansFolio number: 377vNotes: This is the first interior scene of the "gold sky" painter; it is obvious why he avoided depicting interiors and preferred outdoor scenes. The figures are organized in the space as if they are floating in different levels. The division of the space is very peculiar: it is the same method as used in exterior scenes, with the first plane and the hilly edge of the horizon, from behind which the warriors watch the main part. Here, the main part, with the king sitting on his throne, Zal on the throne before him and Rustam standing behind his father, is separated from the "witnessing" part with watching courtiers by the roofs of the tents under which Kay Khusrau, Zal and Rustam are placed.All the figures (besides Rustam) wear crowns, but only the Shah and Zal have white feathers. Another peculiarity: the thrones of KK and Zal are signed: takht-i Zal, takht-i Kay Khusraw. Both flags on margins also bear Arabic inscriptions, appealing to Allah to give victory. (F.A.).The title of the painting is discerned from the lines, which place it in the text where Kay Khusrau is giving advice to the Iranians.Location in text:Mohl 13g, The Great War between Kay Khusrau and Afrasiyab, first line: 2837, break line before: 2837, break line after: 2839.0, last line: 2838.Kay Khusrau gives up his throne to LuhraspFolio number: 380rNotes: The image is not close to the text at this point.Location in text:Mohl 13g, The Great War between Kay Khusrau and Afrasiyab, first line: 3007, break line before: 3010, break line after: 3011.0, last line: 3010.Gushtasp kills a wolf in RumFolio number: 387vLocation in text:Mohl 14, Luhrasp (120 years), first line: None, break line before: None, break line after: None, last line: 405.Isfandiyar's first labour: he fights the wolvesFolio number: 416vLocation in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 1618, break line before: 1621, break line after: 1622.0, last line: 1621.Isfandiyar's second labour: he fights the lionsFolio number: 417vLocation in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 1651, break line before: 1650, break line after: 1651.0, last line: 1654.Isfandiyar's fourth labour: he kills the sorceressFolio number: 418vLocation in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 1753, break line before: 1757, break line after: None, last line: 1758.The dying Isfandiyar advises RustamFolio number: 445rNotes: A second interior scene, rather unusual, and could have been avoided if the artist had depicted the more usual scene of "Rustam shooting Isfandiyar in his eyes", which is absent. Here it is a mourning scene, with Rustam kneeling in the garden's brick pavilion, with the head of Isfandiyar on his knees. The posture of the lying prince with the closed eyes is very realistic and does not reflect his dead state: it is turned 3/4 towards the spectator. Strangely, the prince, covered with gold blanket, is quite old, he has a white beard. All the other six figures mourning also have crowns, but only two of them with white feathers on top. (F.A.).Location in text:Mohl 15, Gushtasp (120 years), first line: 3892, break line before: 3896, break line after: 3897.0, last line: 3896.Iskandar mournedFolio number: 483rLocation in text:Mohl 20, Iskandar (14 years), first line: 1801, break line before: 1809, break line after: 1810.0, last line: None.Gustaham in conversation with the weeping talismanFolio number: 636vNotes: The second breakline is not in Mohl.Location in text:Mohl 43, Khusrau Parviz (38 years), first line: 1447, break line before: 1451, break line after: None, last line: 1453.Sample pageFolio number: 238rColophonFolio number: 686v
