EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported to the court of King Solomon, where an angel and a diverse array of creatures gather around him. Painted with intricate detail and vibrant colors, this 19th-century Persian artwork brings to life the ancient Indian collection of animal fables known as Panchatantra. Seated majestically on his throne, King Solomon exudes wisdom and authority. The angel by his side symbolizes divine guidance and protection. Surrounding them are courtiers from various walks of life, representing the rich tapestry of society. Birds perch on branches above, adding a touch of whimsy to the scene. Notably, a demon lurks in the background – a reminder that even in the presence of great power and knowledge, darkness can still exist. This serves as a moral lesson about human behavior and morality. The artist skillfully anthropomorphizes animals throughout the composition, giving them human-like qualities that reflect their roles within these timeless tales. Each character tells its own story through posture and expression. This remarkable illustration is part of Ms. W. 599 at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, USA – a copy of Anvar-i Suhayli (the Lights of Canopus) translated into Persian by Mirza Rahim from Kalilah wa-Dimnah (The Fables of Bidpay). It offers us an enchanting glimpse into both Persian culture and ancient Indian folklore while reminding us that lessons learned centuries ago still resonate today.
