EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from the 14th-century Islamic literary classic, "The Book of Kalilah and Dimnah". In this particular illustration, titled "Fol. 110 The Sultana leaving the palace" we witness an exquisite moment as the Sultana gracefully departs her opulent residence. Painted with ink and opaque watercolors on paper by an unknown artist from the Islamic School, this artwork is housed in the Egyptian National Library in Cairo. The image showcases a vibrant procession led by the Sultana herself, accompanied by courtiers and guards. A magnificent elephant adorned with elaborate decorations carries her in a grand howdah or houdah. As she emerges from her palace gates, she is shielded from the sun's rays by a beautiful parasol or umbrella. This visual masterpiece not only highlights intricate details but also tells a story through its rich symbolism. It represents power, elegance, and authority while alluding to timeless themes found within Arabic literature – fables about people and animals that have captivated audiences for centuries. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry, we are transported back in time to witness a significant moment in history—a testament to human creativity and cultural heritage that continues to inspire generations today.
