The Emperor Akbar's Khamsah of Nizami (The British Library manuscripts in colour series) - Tapa blanda
Sinopsis
The Emperor Akbar's "Khamsah" ("quintet") is a collection of five books of stories, on romantic and heroic themes, composed by the Persian poet Nizami in the late 12th century. Akbar's richly illustrated copy of this work was made in 1595, probably at Lahore where his court was resident at the time, and is now one of the greatest treasures of Indian book painting in the British Library's collection. In this illustrated study of the manuscript, Barbara Brend provides an authoritative introduction to its artistic and historical backgound and brings to life some of the stories which it contains.

Glossy illustrated paper covers with light bumping to the edges and mild shelf wear; spine uncreased. Binding tight; pages clean and unmarked, the color plates bright. Reproduces in full, for the first time, the illustrations of the British Library's Khamsa of Nizami (Or. 12208), one of the finest illustrated manuscripts made for the Mughal emperor Akbar. Copied by the royal scribe in 1595 at the height of Akbar's reign, the manuscript carries more than forty miniatures by the leading painters of the imperial atelier, blending Persian refinement with the naturalism and vigor of the Mughal school. The Khamsa, or Quintet, is the five-part verse cycle of the twelfth-century Persian poet Nizami, among the most celebrated works in Persian literature. Barbara Brend, a specialist in Islamic and Persian manuscript painting, provides an abridgement of the stories illustrated together with commentary on the individual paintings and their non-figurative illumination.
