Khosrow Soltan Armani
Appearance
Khosrow Khan (d. 1653) was a Safavid official and gholam of Armenian origin, who served as the governor (beglarbeg) of Shirvan between 1643–1653. Khosrow Khan priorly held the office of "master of the hunt" (amīr shekār-bāshi), but was promoted to the office of governor on around the ascension of king Abbas II (r. 1642–1666). His sons Allahverdi Khan (not to be mistaken with the Georgian Allahverdi Khan) and Emamverdi Beg would hold several influential positions as well.
