拍品专文

The drop-shaped form of the ‘alam, or processional standard, which forms a key part of the visual repertoire of ‘alams from Iran, here meets the sculpted parrots traditionally seen in South India. Notably, the central parrots carry two attributes each – one with the sun on its head and possibly a press on its wings, the other with the moon and a statuette of seated cattle.
