Description

Iranian Mina'i ware bowl, 1200-1299 CE, now in the collection of the Minneapolis Institute of Art. From the bowl's description on [artsmia.org](www.artsmia.org): *'The theme of two horsemen on either side of a tree frequently appears on mina'i ware. It might have alluded to a hunt scene, a luxury enjoyed by the princely classes.'* More information [here](https://collections.artsmia.org/art/1085/minai-ware-bowl-iran)
