![]() If the Sasanian motif implied more than a solely decorative function-if it was religious imagery-could it then be possible that some of the former content of the image was also transferred to the succeeding period?Īgyul Malkeyeva, Musical life in the Baburnama and its reflection in the miniatures.Ī comparison of music-making scenes in three early manuscripts of the Baburnama (The British Museum, London, Or.3714 the National Museum of India, New Delhi, MS NM 50.326 and a group of pages at the Gosudarstvennyj Muzej Iskusstva Narodov Vostoka, Moscow) indicate that illustrations were more bearers of their own ideas than the testimony of actual events. A question still under discussion is the interpretation of the motif in Islamic art. These vessels were made in the 3rd to 6th century, but also after the Muslim conquest some of the vessels are dated to the 9th to 10th century. It is generally accepted that the Islamic motif of the dancer and musician was modelled on the Sasanian imagery, today mostly found on the sumptuous silver vessels.

In images by Utagawa Toyokuni I (1769–1825), one stand has a single slightly shorter leg, one is posted on a vertical board which has its center hollowed out, and one has three thick curved legs. Depictions by Torii Kiyonaga (1752–1815) show musical stands with three narrow curved legs called takoashi (octopus legs), or with a single narrow leg. Although all this styles appear depicted on degatari-zu, different types of music stands are shown only in the prints depicting tokiwazu. Music which accompanies kabuki dance can be divided into two general types: a lyric, descriptive, poetic style called nagauta, and a narrative style which included tokiwazu, tomimoto, and kiyomoto genres.
