Lot 84

A very rare early illustration to a mid-13th century obscene poem, Bukhara, Iran, late 16th century, ink and opaque pigments heightened with gold, depicting lovers including a figure in a distinctive black hat, in various coupling positions in a brightly coloured and patterned tile interior, with 2 lines of Persian nasta'liq above and below within cloudbands on a gold ground, and diagonal line of the same above and below, outer border decorated in gold with animals on a floral ground, signature top left, mounted, glazed and framed, painting 26.5 x 17cm. Provenance: Estate of costume designer Anthony Powell (1935-2021)Ostensibly, this single folio was part of a manuscript of the collected works (Kulliyāt) of the renowned Persian poet and mystic, Saʿdī of Shiraz (d. 1292 CE). The painting is partially framed by five couplets that belong to a short narrative poem (masnavī) that is found in the little-studied and unpublished collection of Saʿdī’s obscene works (khabīsāt), which are featured prominently in the earliest manuscripts of the Kulliyāt (see D. Ingenito, Beholding Beauty: Saʿdi of Shiraz and the Aesthetics of Desire in Medieval Persian Poetry). The poem, which comprises seventy couplets, recounts the story of a handsome young man who marries an uncomely and ill-mannered woman. Upon experiencing an erotic fiasco during their first night together, the young man begs his father-in-law to allow him to divorce his wife. The father rejects this request by telling the young man that he would have to spend time in jail in order to pay back his daughter’s dowry. After thinking at length about his miserable condition, the young husband resorts to the uncanny expedient of seducing and sexually subjugating his wife’s entire family and entourage, without discriminating between women and men of any age. Being the only family member who has not been assaulted by the young man, the father consents to the divorce of the couple with no further hesitation. The five couplets quoted in this folio pertain to the central part of the poem, which offers a detailed description of the orgiastic spree undertaken by the young man. As is often the case with Saʿdī’s obscene works, in these lines, explicit descriptions of sexual acts are juxtaposed with delicate similes and metaphors that are drawn from the poet’s inimitable lyric styleThe combination of high and low poetic registers in Saʿdī’s ludic narration in verse is reflected in the stylistic elegance with which the painting portrays scenes of sexual disinhibition. In fact, in this folio (if one takes into account the contents of the entire poem), the visual and literary texts simultaneously stage the lewd and the alluring dimensions of eroticism: intimate body parts are covered and uncovered by fine garments, while mechanical forms of sexual penetration reveal seductive tensions between bodies enraptured by desire. The decorative aspect of pieces of clothing, rugs, curtains, along with the delicate rotation of different limbs, seems to mimic the rhetorical embellishments with which Saʿdī’s lines describe multiple forms of vaginal and anal intercourse. Whereas the poem, line by line, offers a list of the young man’s sexual encounters with the members of his wife’s family in chronological order, the painting portrays all of them simultaneously. The orgiastic aesthetics of the visual representation does not allow onlookers to recognize specific details found in the poem (apart from a candle held by a young man on the bottom right). The young husband, as a serial penetrator, occupies a different timeframe in each section of the painting. While his physical features appear to be always the same, different erotic settings are distinguished by different garments. At the center of the painting, as a bizarre variation of the erotic scenes, the young husband appears to have a darker skin color. Moreover, instead of having sex with a beardless male or female youth, the darker boy seems to be penetrating a bearded man. A man with similar facial features and hair appears on the top right of the painting. One could assume that this adult male is the visual depiction of the young man’s father-in-law who, in the versified plot, fears the sexual intentions of his daughter’s husband after having been made aware of the erotic tumult he has brought to his family.Stylistic features of this painting suggest that it was produced in Shiraz between the 1560s and the 1570s CE (see, for instance, a Gulistān copied in Shiraz in 1575). Visual representations of Saʿdī’s bawdy verses (and, in general, of obscene poetry) are extremely rare before the 17th century. Nonetheless, a manuscript of Saʿdī’s Kulliyāt copied in Shiraz in 1566 (British Library, Add. 24944) presents a painting that is strikingly similar to this one [reproduced by Boone, see attachment] and illustrates exactly the same erotic masnavī. Even though both Lâle Uluç and Joseph Allen Boone misread Saʿdī’s poem as a text on “lovemaking techniques” and its visual representation found in Add. 24944 (f. 333) as a “brothel scene,” these documents attest to the existence of a Saʿdī-centric tradition of erotic iconography that developed in Shiraz during the second half of the 16th centuryWith special thanks for this cataloguing to Domenico Ingenito, Associate Professor of Persian Literature, University of California, Los AngelesFolio stuck down

An album page with a Safavid drawing and borders from an album made for Emperor Shah Jahan, Persia and India, circa 1625-50, ink, gouache and gold on paper, the drawing with false attribution to the artist Farrukh Beg, laid down with inner borders of floral illumination with panels of nasta'liq calligraphy, wide outer borders with floral decoration from an album made for Emperor Shah Jahan, 38.6 x 24.9cm. Provenance: Ex-collection Ardeshir; Sotheby's London, 'The Property of a Gentleman', 10 July 1973, lot 8; Sotheby's, 05/10/2010, lot 58This album page has been assembled using the exquisite floral borders from one of the well-known albums made for the Mughal Emperor Shah Jahan. The albums made for Shah Jahan and his father Jahangir in the first half of the seventeenth century were notable for the extremely high quality of the border decoration, and the leading artists of the royal atelier were employed to decorate them.The skillful drawing of an old man with a grey beard is executed in Safavid style of the first half of the seventeenth century, approximately contemporaneous with the production of the royal albums of Shah Jahan. However, it is probably not the original work intended for this album page. More likely, it was inserted into these borders, which may have lost their original central panel, sometime in the early twentieth century, when many album leaves were disassembled and re-assembled. The drawing bears a later and fictitious attribution to the Perso-Mughal artist Farrukh Beg.Laid down on card backing

Lot 253

An illustrated folio from the Freer Small Shahnameh, Sawa Shah slain in battle by Bahram Chubina, Iran, circa 1300-1340, ink and opaque pigments on paper heightened with gold and silver, with 31ll. of black naskh arranged in six columns within red rule, verso with 31ll. and a header in gold naskh, folio 30.4 x 21.8cm. The widely dispersed “Freer” Shahnameh (Book of Kings), is the third of the earliest surviving illustrated copies of the Persian national epic, the work of Abu’l-Qasim Mansur Firdausi (d. 1020). Composed around the turn of the 11th century, the Shahnameh conveys through 50,000 rhyming couplets the lives of 50 Iranian kings before the arrival of Islam. The name “Freer Small” reflects the fact that most of the manuscript (text-pages and 45 illustrations) has been in the Freer Gallery of Art, Washington DC, for much of the 20th century. Other illustrated folios from this manuscript are in the Aga Khan Museum (AKM20, AKM21, AKM22)In many ways, however, the “Freer” manuscript is unlike the other two, the “First” and the “Second Small” Shahnameh manuscript apart from also being copied in six columns of text. The illustrations, too, are differently treated, they are squarish in shape. Please refer to department for condition report
