Khusraw spies Shirin Bathing
"One of the classical islamic stories that are referred
to quite often in My Name is Red is the romance of
Khusraw and Shirin. Although Shirin, the Armenian
princess falls in love with Khusraw, the Persian
Prince, when she first sees his picture, they first
meet at this scene exquisitely painted by 16th century
miniaturists. Shirin is swimming in a small pond and
Khusraw is spying her in moonlight." --Orhan Pamuk
