This print depicts a dramatic moment from Iran’s famous epic poem the Shahnameh during a battle between Iranian and Turanian combatants. Their commander, Qaran, has targeted his Turanian equivalent, Barman who killed Qaran's brother. We see the moment when, with one blow of his lance, Qaran strikes Barman's belt and sends him flying.
