As agriculture and animal domestication progressed, a decrease occurred in the primacy of hunting.   Nevertheless, its religious aspects remained in the process of dedicating the hunted meat as an offering to the temples.  Meanwhile, it is interesting to know that kings and princes throughout the Persian history have hunted with diverse intentions.   In various historical eras, especially during the Sassanid period, this evolutionary process took different concept as hunting became the most common subject of the Sassanid reliefs and the Sassanid kings established special places named as “Shekar Gah” which means hunting place or hunting garden. Khosrow Parviz besides making a hunting place in Taq-e Bustan established two other hunting places near Ghasr-e Shirin.  These places are so similar to the hunting place of Taq-e Bustan from the standpoint of climatic conditions and structural features.    This article aims to investigate the concept of hunting in the Sassanid Period, specially the hunting places of the Khosrow II.  Therefore, the hunting place of the Khosrow II at Taq-e Bustan and the wild boar and deer hunting motives in both sides of the Taq-e Bozorg or the great vault of Taq-e Bustan and their influence on the formation of hunting place of Fathali Shah in the Tang-e Vashi as well as his Relief over there has been investigated.    The study of reliefs of the Taq-e Bustan has revealed their derived inspiration from the wall paintings of the late Parthian and Sassanid periods, as wall paintings with hunting motives of the Sassanid period is affected by the Parthian wall paintings. Taq-e Bustan hunting reliefs have influenced the Islamic hunting motives as are mainly observable in the Qajar Period’s reliefs.  This influence is obviously visible in Fathali Shah-e Qatar’s hunting reliefs in Tang-e Vashi.  The reason of this influence can be found in the social and political conditions of that period.  Both areas (Taq- e Bustan and Tang-e Vashi), are similar in the favorable climate and environmental conditions for making hunting place and hunt relief, but they are different in combined and shaping features.    Moreover, the main difference remains in the purpose of making the reliefs.  As in Taq-e Bustan with existence of Anahita  goddess and sanctity of hunting in the Sassanid period, more religious intentions along with representing of king’s power are participated in its establishment, but it seems the main purpose of Tang-e Vashi  relief in such arduous and out of sight area cannot be connected with the aspect of indicating the king’s power or to represent religious concepts. Rather, it was more intended to show the persistence of Qajar dynasty and Fathalishah’s descendants.  Here the king uses the reliefs to portray the persistence of Qajar dynasty and the transfer of power to his own sons.  His second purpose could be establishing a resemblance between ancient Iranian kings and his efforts to expand his kingdom and provide services to the public.   Overall, the hunting places and the hunting relief in Taq-e Bustan comprise a banquet-religious complex, but in Tang-e Vashi more attention has been paid to banquet complex alongside representing of persistence of king’s dynasty.   The method that has been used in the current research is based on the study of written resources, archeological field research and analysis of the achieved data.  Various resources and written documents have referred to hunting and hunting place in the period of Sassanid dynasty, but so far no one has paid enough attention to the content of hunting as the important aspect of the Sassanid culture.}, keywords = {Hunting place,Hunt,Taq-e Bustan,Tang-e Vashi,relief}, title_fa = {تأملی بر نقش برجستۀ شکارگاه خسرو دوم (؟) در تاق بستان و الگوپذیری از آن در نقش برجستۀ تنگ‌واشی فتحعلی‌شاهِ قاجار}, abstract_fa = {نقش‌مایۀ شکار از نخستین نقاشی‌های دیواری دوران پارینه‌سنگی درون غارها تا تکامل‌یافته ترین دست ساخته‌های امروزی در هنر ایران وجود داشته و در مسیر تاریخ هنر و طی فرایندِ شکل‌گیری فرهنگ‌های مختلف، مفاهیم گوناگونی را در درون خود پرورده است. این روند تکاملی در دوران تاریخی و خصوصاً دورۀ ساسانی مفهومی فراتر از شکار صرف به خود می‌گیرد، به طوری‌که یکی از رایج‌ترین موضوعات هنر و فرهنگ دورۀ ساسانی صحنه شکار است و در این زمینه شاهان ساسانی اقدام به تأسیس مکان‌هایی خاص با عنوان شکارگاه و یا باغ‌شکار کرده‌اند. این پژوهش در نظر دارد به بررسی مفهوم شکار در دورۀ ساسانی، به ویژه اهمیت محوطه‌های شکارگاهی دورۀ خسرو دوم بپردازد؛ بدین منظور شکارگاه خسرو دوم در تاق بستان و نقوش حک‌شدۀ شکار گراز و گوزن در دو طرف تاق بزرگ‌تاق‌بستان مطالعه شده و تأثیر آنها بر شکل‌گیری شکارگاه فتحعلی‌شاه در تنگ‌واشی، و همچنین نقش برجستۀ او در این مکان، بررسی‌شده است. مطالعۀ نقوش شکارگاه تاق بستان، تأثیرپذیری آنها را از نقاشی‌های دیواری مربوط به شکارِ اواخر دورۀ اشکانی و دورۀ ساسانی مشخص کرده است، به طوری‌که خود نقاشی‌های دیواری مربوط به شکار دورۀ ساسانی خود متأثر از نقاشی‌های دیواری دورۀ اشکانی‌اند. نقوش شکارگاهی تاق بستان بر نقوش شکار در دوران اسلامی تأثیر گذاشته است که نمود این تأثیرات را در مینیاتورهای دورۀ اسلامی می‌توان دید. چنانچه اوج آن در دورۀ قاجار و به گونه‌ای دیگر تجلی پیدا می‌کند؛ بارزترین نمود این تأثیرپذیری در دورۀ قاجار، نقش برجستۀ شکار شاهی فتحعلی‌شاه در تنگ‌واشی است. مطالعات صورت گرفته در این پژوهش نشان می‌دهد، با وجود اینکه دو نقش برجستۀ مذکور از نظر مضامین به هم شباهت دارند، اما هدف از ایجاد آنها متفاوت بوده است.}, keywords_fa = {شکارگاه,شکار,تاق بستان,تنگ‌واشی,نقش برجسته}, url = {http://www.bagh-sj.com/article_1704.html}, eprint = {http://www.bagh-sj.com/article_1704_66c14fa03f8aee9025c12247203f8da5.pdf} }
