Notes
This folio from Walters manuscript W.624 depicts a scene from the Shirin va Khusraw. On horseback, Shirin approaches the sculptor Farhad. The milk flowing through the channel recalls Shirin's request that Farhad cut a path through the mountain to bring milk from his flocks to her pavilion. Below the image, the border is inscribed 'amal-i (work of) Sanwalah.For the latest information about this object, illuminated manuscripts; folios (leaves), visit art.thewalters.org. | Dynasty: Mughal Dynasty | Inscriptions: | Reign: | Style: Mughal | more | less
