India / Iran: 'Shirin Receives a Ring from Khusraw'. Folio by Farrukh Chela, c. 1597-1598. Khosrow II (570 - 28 February 628), also spelt Chosroes II and commonly known as Khosrow Parviz ('Khosrow the Victorious'), was a Shahanshah (King of Kings) of the Sasanian Empire, considered to be the last great king of Persia before the Muslim conquest. His courtship of the Armenian/Roman princess Shirin was a popular subject in works of Persian literature such as Fedrowsi's 'Shahnameh' and Nizami Ganjavi's 'Khosrow and Shirin'. These tales painted him as a great hero, as much a lover as a king.
