EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Flemish miniature from the 15th century, depicting the renowned Persian religious leader and founder of Zoroastrianism, Zoroaster. Also known as Zarathustra, he is captured in his study, surrounded by ancient artifacts and symbols that reflect his influential role in shaping one of the world's oldest religions. Zoroaster sits regally on a throne-like chair, wearing an ornate crown that signifies his leadership. With a long flowing beard and wise gaze, he exudes wisdom and authority. Engrossed in deep contemplation, he holds a writing instrument in hand while seated at an arch-shaped desk adorned with various tools such as compasses for intellectual pursuits. The composition beautifully captures the medieval atmosphere with its intricate details and vibrant colors. The Flemish artist skillfully portrays Zoroaster's scholarly environment by including musical instruments like lutes and organs symbolizing artistic expression alongside books representing knowledge. This remarkable image not only pays homage to this revered historical figure but also provides us with a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Persia during that era. It serves as a testament to Zoroaster's enduring legacy as both a spiritual guide for millions worldwide and an emblematic representation of Persian history.
