A YOUNG MAN AND A HORSE, «The book about Ilkhan hunt»


Illustrators of Bukhara painting school of XVI century have their own style. But the author of the miniature to manual for hunters looks like an imitator of Samarkand list of “Shah-nama” (1628).
The horse moving fast against the background of the rocks, a crooked tree and clouds and the young man in the turban are traditional for Samarkand school miniature painting.
