EDITORS COMMENTS
This 16th-century print titled "Bahram Visits the White Domed Pavilion" is a part of the renowned Khamsa of Nizami, Haft Paykar manuscript. Created during the Safavid period in Shiraz, Iran, this exquisite artwork showcases the exceptional talent and mastery of Persian miniature painting. In this particular scene, we witness Shah Bahram Gur's visit to one of his wives in a stunning white pavilion. The artist skillfully captures the essence of romance and intimacy as Bahram spends a day indulging in love with his wife. As they bask in each other's company, she narrates an enchanting tale accompanied by dancing fairies. The attention to detail is remarkable; notice how a young girl dances gracefully to music in the foreground, foreshadowing the magical story that unfolds within. The use of ink and gold on paper adds depth and richness to every stroke, further enhancing its allure. Preserved at The Cleveland Museum of Art, this masterpiece remains an enigma as its creator remains unknown. Nevertheless, it continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty and narrative prowess. Heritage Art/Heritage Images has expertly reproduced this historic artwork through their meticulous printing process.
