Abulqasem Ferdowsi is one of the great epic poets of Dari Persian literature who devoted his life to writing the Shahnameh and completed it in thirty years and brought the history of his ancestors to life. He was born in the year (325 Hijri) in Deh Baj, Tus Province, Khorasan. His name has been known by some historians as Mansour and his father's name as Ahmed, but he is more famous with the surname of Abulqasem Ferdowsi. Ferdowsi's Shahnameh, the greatest epic work of our people, is one of the great books of the history of a thousand years of Dari culture and literature. The Shahnameh is not a book that only describes the heroes, the battlefield and the campaign, and the defeats and victories of the heroes. In this work, the universal repetition of moral, philosophical and scientific patriotic ideas is very impressive.

In this research, some illustrations of the Shahnameh have been analyzed in a descriptive and analytical method using library sources, and the result that Ferdowsi has used poetic images in the Shahnameh shows the power of the poet's imagery and imagination.
