English: Turkish Sultan mourning for his wife, Folio from a manuscript of Nigaristan
Accession Number:AKM272.f142r Creator:Author: Ahmad b. Muhammad Ghaffari, Persian, died 1567 Scribe: Ahmad al-Shirazi Place:Iran, Shiraz (probably) Dimensions:38.7 cm × 25 cm × 6.4 cm Date:1573-74 CE/980 AH/AH 980 Materials and Technique:Ink, opaque watercolour, and gold on paper
The main element in this miniature painting is the architecture: a three-dimensional building flattened to a single plane. According to the text, the weeping ruler is the Seljuk sultan Muhammad, who had asked the daughter of Muqtafi—an ʿAbbasid caliph (r. 1136–60)—to marry him. The young woman tragically succumbs to tuberculosis on the way to her new groom. Sultan Muhammad orders all of his belongings to be spread out in front of him. When he sees his worldly treasures, he realizes that material items are worthless because they cannot alleviate his grief. At this realization, he weeps bitterly. Similar to other Illustrations in this manuscript, this image depicts a building where only the façade is shown on two levels. The walls are covered with pink, green, and blue tilework. This is one of the few images where the background of the image is an architectural façade. |
