The story
The poet of the Shahnameh, the national epic of Iran, credited with keeping the Persian language and its old stories alive. This portrait is imagined, not a likeness: it belongs to the series Persiahaus Studio drew for the Greats of Persian poetry.
Persiahaus Studio drew ferdowsi in profile, long white beard and white turban, holding the open Shahnameh under a crown.
