RM2B01WAE–India / Iran: 'Shirin Receives a Ring from Khusraw'. Folio by Farrukh Chela, c. 1597-1598. Khosrow II (570 - 28 February 628), also spelt Chosroes II and commonly known as Khosrow Parviz ('Khosrow the Victorious'), was a Shahanshah (King of Kings) of the Sasanian Empire, considered to be the last great king of Persia before the Muslim conquest. His courtship of the Armenian/Roman princess Shirin was a popular subject in works of Persian literature such as Fedrowsi's 'Shahnameh' and Nizami Ganjavi's 'Khosrow and Shirin'. These tales painted him as a great hero, as much a lover as a king.

He briefly lost his throne, but regained it with the help of the Byzantine Empire, who he would later go to constant war with. He conquered much of the Byzantine Empire's territories, but he was eventually executed by his own son, leading to a civil war and the eventual Muslim conquest of Persia five years later.
