The Court of the Shah

pytanie o obraz / rezerwacja obrazu

“The Court of the Shah” is my own interpretation of an original Persian Miniature painting. It portrays an Indian delegation, presenting a newly translated book into Persian to the king. The painting is accompanied by a Persian poem, written in Farsi, describing the event.
The style is recognized by its two-dimensionality and highly elaborate patterns. Miniature painting’s greatest period falls on the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries but the art of miniature continues up to now, often absorbing western influences.
