Torture of prisoners. Diez-Album

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Torture of prisoners. Diez-Album (1335–1355) Jalayirid
  • 16. Torture of Prisoners (see article O'Kane, fig. 17.7) Unidentified episode from an epic (Shāhnāma or post- Shāhnāma?) Pigments and gold on paper; Iran, 1350–1400. (cf. article by O'Kane). SBB-PK, Diez A fol. 70, p. 6, no. 1 Masterpieces from the Serail: The Albums of Heinrich Friedrich von Diez (1751–1817) p.651
  • Jalayirid Diez Album Paintings: However, in the Diez albums there are several candidates for royal painting in the 1340s-1350s, in particular a series of illustrations from Shāhnāma-like epics. (...) This is exceeded in a couple of paintings that make use of the margin, a clear sign, as discussed above, of post-Ilkhanid painting. (...) The second, showing four unhappy warriors lying down with buttocks exposed (fig. 17.7), looks to be a scene of punishment (although I am happy to accept the suggestion that Abolala Soudavar made while viewing the painting at the exhibition that it could be one of branding rather than whipping). The Diez Albums pp.477-479
