| Description |
English: Scene showing Alexander sharing his throne with Queen Nushabah. The manuscript is from the——the Bengali-Persian Sharafnāmāh, dated 1531. And produced for Sulṭān Nuṣrat Shah of Bengal (r. 1519-38). The text is from Niẓāmī’s Khamsah (Quintet), and is the first half of the Iskandarnāmah that describes the "conquests of the Alexander the Great," the last poem of the quintet. This slim volume contains nine vibrant paintings that show the assimilation of both Indic and "Persian artistic traditions." Such adaptations were common——to several fifteenth-century manuscripts from sultanates in the Indian subcontinent. |
