Creamer and Spilled Milk on Table Hand holding Beautiful sea shell on a white backgroundHelmet (Khula Khud) first half 19th century Iranian Despite the modernization of Irans military in the nineteenth century, traditional armor continued to be manufactured. Its purpose, however, is uncertain: for military parades, as costume for religious or historical plays, or as romantic souvenirs for the tourist trade. This helmet, with its feline face and horns, features imagery inspired by Irans national epic, the Shahnama (Book of Kings)—notably, the tiger-skin headdress and the horned ox-headed mace that were the distinguishing arms of the hero Rustam. Inscriptions in Persian refer to Rustam and several other heroes from the poem.. Helmet (Khula Khud). Iranian. first half 19th century. Steel, iron, copper alloy. HelmetsEpaulettes from H.L.

Children from wealthy families would start riding lessons as soon as they could sit on a pony, usually around the age of 3. Horsemanship was an important component of European noble society, and children of the elite were expected to master the art of equitation. Moreover, as many nobles served in the cavalry, it was essential for them to be skillful riders by the time they were old enough to go to war.

As horses were highly prized in Mughal culture, it is not surprising that horse-head daggers were the most popular subject for zoomorphic hilts for several centuries.
