EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing scene from the 16th century Persian School. Entitled "A prince seated in a landscape with attendants" this exquisite artwork is an opaque watercolor, ink, and gold masterpiece on paper. With dimensions of 29.7 x 19.4 cm, it currently resides at the prestigious Freer Gallery of Art in the Smithsonian Institution, USA. Originally part of a dispersed copy of Khamsa (Quintet) by Nizami, this print represents the right-hand half of a double-page frontispiece. The left-hand portion can be found at FSG 5932595 within the same gallery collection. This acquisition was made possible through various funding sources including Smithsonian Unrestricted Trust Funds, Smithsonian Collections Acquisition Program, and Dr. Arthur M. Sackler. The image portrays an enchanting moment during the Safavid period (1501-1722) in Persia's history. It features a noble prince surrounded by his devoted attendants against a breathtaking landscape backdrop. The intricate details and vibrant colors highlight the exceptional skills of Persian illumination artists. Every element within this composition tells its own story - from the percussion instrument held by one attendant to the presence of domestic servants attending to their duties nearby. This piece truly exemplifies Islamic art's rich heritage and cultural significance. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this timeless work for Fine Art Finder, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate its historical value and artistic brilliance without any commercial use intentions
