拍品描述
AN EMACIATED HORSE DECCAN, INDIA, SECOND HALF 17TH CENTURY Opaque pigments heightened with gold on paper, the starving horse harassed by birds, a text panel on either side with 2ll. of black nasta'liq script, laid down on an album page, the wide pale green borders with gold decoration comprising birds amidst scrolling floral motifs, with dark blue narrow margins, the reverse plain Painting 3 ? x (8.8 x 10.6cm.); text panel 3 ? x 6 7/8in. (9.7 x 17.6cm.); folio 7 5/8 x 12 1/8in. (19.5 x 31cm.) This arresting image of a starved and exhausted horse is very similar to one in the Pierpont Morgan Library attributed to mid-17th century Bijapur (inv. M.458, fol. 30b). It has been suggested that this popular theme was inspired by the Sufi origin group of emaciated creatures, which symbolise the baser instincts within man which the mystic must 'starve' to attain enlightenment (Schimmel, 1975, pp.112-13). A similar miniature was sold from the collection of Stuart Cary Welch at Sotheby's, London, 6 April 2011, lot 114.
