Framed Print of Bahram Gur Arrives at the House of a Merchant, text page (recto), from a Shahnama
Bahram Gur Arrives at the House of a Merchant, text page (recto), from a Shahnama (Book of Kings) of Firdausi (940-1019 or 1025), known as the Great Mongol Shahnama, 1330-35. In this intense painting, Bahram Gur plunges his sword into the chest of a dragon. A favorite character from Irans pre-Islamic history, Bahram Gur (r. 420-38) was a popular ruler of the Sasanian dynasty and a great hunter. He took the name Gur, meaning onager (a wild ass), because it was his preferred game, although he also excelled at killing dragons. As seen in this illustrations rock formations, tree trunk, and dragon, Iranian painting in the Mongol period borrowed numerous stylistic and spatial elements from Chinese models. With the surging landscape and writhing dragon rendered with equal energy, this is a picture of extraordinary unity and concentration.
