Fragment of Wall Painting with a Scene of Two Horsemen Slaying a Serpent

Fragment of Wall Painting with a Scene of Two Horsemen Slaying a Serpent. Dimensions: H. 19 1/2 in. (49.5 cm) W. 23 1/4 in. (59.1 cm) Wt. 41 lbs. (18.6 kg). Date: early 20th century. Medieval texts report that wall paintings often decorated building interiors, and some examples have been excavated. However, extant wall paintings from the Seljuq period are rare. This fragment, probably from the spandrel of an arch, contains a row of standing and kneeling figures in the upper register and a scene of two horsemen slaying a serpent in the lower register. Even more than mina'i ware pottery, it gives an impression of the little-known pre-Mongol painting style.
