All three wear crowns. Published by Ch. Melville, "The Turko-Mongol era", fig. 8.5, p. 231.Location in text:Mohl 13, Kay Khusrau (60 years), first line: None, break line before: None, break line after: None, last line: None.Rustam pulls the Khaqan of Chin from his elephant by lassoFolio number: 73.57.6Notes: A reverse of the scene from the Baysunghur Shahnama.The text is found on the reverse side.
