Zībāyīʹshināsī-i nigārahʹhā-yi Shāhnāmah-i Firdawsī: nuskhah-ʼi khaṭṭī az ʻahd-i Taymūrī

This monograph by Ilhām Nuṣrat Niẓāmī offers an in-depth aesthetic examination of a specific manuscript of Firdawsī's Shāhnāmah, attributed to the Taymūrī era and preserved at the Saʻdābād Palace in Tihrān, Īrān. The text explores the stylistic evolution of Persian painting during the Tīmūrī and early Ṣafavī periods, providing a historical context for Shāhnāmah illustration in Īrān. Detailed chapters analyse the physical structure of the Saʻdābād manuscript, its calligraphy, and the visual composition of its miniatures, including human figures, animals, and landscapes. Published by Hūrīn in 2023, this study contributes significantly to the understanding of Iranian art history.
