Description:
In this image, a Persian soldier is wearing the short shalwar (Shoberl 1845, p. 113) or shalvar (Vogelsang-Eastwood p. 8) with knee-high boots. His jacket is similar to military wear of European soldiers and is completed by the wearing of a belt and a sash. The headgear of the soldier is very different from that of European soldiers in that it is the same conical, fur cap, kolah namadi (Vogelsang-Eastwood, p. 12), worn by the scribe, priest, and other males pictured in this work. Unlike these other figures, he wears only the mustache.
