EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent Qajar moulded and glazed tile from 19th century Iran. The ceramic masterpiece, measuring 38.1 x 50.8 cm, is part of a private collection and depicts a mesmerizing scene from ancient Persian mythology. In this artwork, we witness the legendary King Khusraw riding alongside his attendant as they unexpectedly stumble upon the beautiful Shirin bathing in a stylized landscape. The intricate details bring this enchanting tale to life, with an extensive palace serving as the backdrop for their encounter. The tile's border features an exquisite meandering vine design that adds elegance to the overall composition. Although there is evidence of repair on the upper left-hand corner and some chipping along the borders and edge, these imperfections do not diminish its artistic value. The reverse side of this remarkable piece reveals a suspension plate, further emphasizing its historical significance and craftsmanship. Through Christie's Images' expert photography skills, every delicate brushstroke and glaze detail are captured flawlessly. Bridgeman Images presents this print as an opportunity to appreciate the rich cultural heritage of Iran's Qajar dynasty while marveling at the skillful artistry displayed in this exceptional ceramic tile.
