Rostam or Rustam is the most celebrated legendary hero in Shahnameh and Iranian mythology, best-known for his tragic fight with Esfandiar, the other legendary Iranian hero, for his expedition to Mazandaran and for his mournful fight with his son Sohrab who was killed in the battle. He was immortalized by the 10th century Persian poet Ferdowsi in the Shahnameh, or Epic of Kings, which contains pre-Islamic Iranian folklore and history. This retelling of the legends, based on Ferdowsi's work, was published in 1909 and includes 12 full-page illustrations.
