"Discover the captivating world of Bahram Gur, a legendary hero from the Quintet and Seven Portraits of Nizami. Witness Bahram's encounters in various palaces: Fridays in the White Palace, Folio 235 (A.H. 931 / A.D); Sundays in the Yellow Palace, Folio 213; Thursdays in the Sandal Palace, Folio 230; and Mondays in the Green Palace, Folio [unknown]. Bahram's romantic liaisons include a Greek Princess in the Yellow Pavilion and an Indian Princess in the Dark Palace, Folio 23v (ca. 1430). Bahram's adventures extend beyond palace walls, as seen in Folio 10r from the Haft Paikar (Seven Portraits) of Nizami, where he is depicted on the chase. In the Dark Palace on Saturday, Folio 207, Bahram faces a braggart who meets a tragic end in a well, as told in the tale "How a Braggart was Drowned in a Well." On Wednesdays, Bahram resides in the Turquoise Palace, as depicted in Folio 216 from the Khamsa. This collection of folios, created between A.H. 931 and ca. 1430, offers a glimpse into the rich tapestry of Bahram Gur's life and adventures."
