This illustration comes from a dispersed copy Firdawsi's Shahnama dated to 1571 AD. It is an excellent example of the high-quality of Shirazi manuscript production in the second half of the 16th century. A group of folios from the manuscript, including the present illustration, were sold at Francois de Ricqles, Drouot-Richelieu, Paris, 22 March 1996, lots 91-93. The colophon appears on a page published in the Francois de Ricqules sale in which this folio was acquired (lot 91G.). A further twenty-one folios were sold in Sotheby's, London, 23 April 1997, lots 103-123.
