This print showcases a folio from a Divan, a collection of poems by the renowned Persian poet Hafiz. The image captures the recto side of the folio, featuring an exquisite painting titled "Prince and Princess Listen to Musicians" created by the Persian School in the 19th century. The artwork is a masterpiece that combines opaque watercolor, ink, and gold on paper. Measuring 24.1 x 14.3 cm, it is currently housed in the Arthur M. Sackler Gallery at the Smithsonian Institution in the USA. In this enchanting scene depicted within the illuminated illustration, we witness a prince and princess engrossed in music performed by talented musicians. The delicate brushstrokes bring life to their expressions as they listen intently to melodies that resonate with their souls. The manuscript's illumination adds further allure to this romantic tableau. Every detail has been meticulously crafted with precision and elegance, showcasing both artistic skill and cultural richness. As we admire this remarkable piece of art captured through Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back in time to experience an era where poetry intertwined seamlessly with visual storytelling.
