Book
Soft cover. Condition: Good. No Jacket. English text.; Paperback.; 20.5 x 28 cm; 0.5 Kg.; 127 pages with colour illustrations.; Used book with signs of wear on the exterior, namely some scuffs. Interior in very good condition.; Classical painting flourished in Iran during the sixteenth century under the aegis of the Safavid Shahs. The forty-eight colour plates reproduced here represent the most unusual and dazzling miniatures painted during this period. A semi-nomadic people of luxuriant taste, the Iranian nobility created a life-style of world within magical world: brocade tents in which the Shah and his man feasted mid-battle were ptiched in the desert; palaces opened onto fountains and gardens; lovers, bathers, game-players, and warriors all had their place within a single panorama. The artists captured it all, often spending months filling in their small paintings with minute detail to render the whole world on a single page. With their unique techniques, they applied lapis lazuli, malachite, silver, and gold throughout their art. In these exquisitely portrayed settings, a world of great luxury and delicacy unfolds on every folio - each realized in the shimmering, jewel-like paintings that delight the eye and please the mind. The author traces the historical developments of Safavid Rule, provides commentaries on each painting, and clarifies the fine points.
