Folio from a Khavarannama (The Book of the East) of ibn Husam al-Din, a gathering of tales relating the adventures of 'Ali ibn Abi Talib, son-in-law of the Prophet Muhammad. These mostly imaginary accounts of the exploits of 'Ali and his companions against demons, dragons, and kings were composed in emulation of the great Persian poet Firdausi’s Shahnama, but have the important religious figure of 'Ali as their main protagonist.
