49. Bowl with Horseman and Seated Figures
- الوصف:
- Mina’i is a modern collectors’ term for ceramics made in Iran during the late 12th to early 13th centuries. The term mina’i, translates as “enamelled” in Persian, designating the colored glass pigments used to paint detailed figural decoration on vessels or tiles, which were then fixed on the ceramic base by multiple firings. The use of a wide range of colors, including turquoise, red, green, purple, and black, also led these types of ceramics to be called by the Persian term “haft rang,” or “seven colors.” These colorful compositions created complex narrative scenes which paralleled manuscript painting. Mina’i ware scenes often depict courtly pursuits, such as feasting, fighting, or poetry and music performances. The combination of leisurely activities with more warrior-like occupations, such as the hunt, was frequently used in the medieval Persian iconography of kingship. This is referred to as bazm wa razm, or feasting and fighting. This juxtaposition is seen here, with the central figure, perhaps a ruler, seated on a fully harnessed horse, surrounded by seated four seated figures, who may be courtiers. A pseudo-inscription in kufic lines the interior rim of the bowl, while a pseudo-inscription in naskhi can be seen on the exterior.
