On Tuesday Bahram Gur listens to the story of the daughter of the King of the Fourth Clime, the Slavic Princess. The red signifies the pavilion of the planet Mars, with “Mars” being the name-day of Bahram and, fittingly for this wordplay, the Princess tells a tale of riddles. The tale of the Haft Paykar ran the risk of being tiresome and repetitive for artists, and here the painter has decided to innovate and incorporate the text block into the architecture of the scene.
Like the previous two lots, the pavilion is suitably regal with the couple seated on beautiful carpets with all manner of gold and porcelain items scattered around. A number of attendants surround the couple, whilst the hajib is again shown guarding the door.
