About the Item

Persian School This miniature is an interesting conundrum as several elements fall outside of known examples. The overall style, depiction of architecture elements, ornamentation and perspective is consistent with works dating from the late 17th century; however the treatment of the turban in the central figure and the faces of all three figures are stylistically more consistent with works dating from mid 18th century. The paint is unusual as it is thinner than one would normally expect to see as usually gum Arabic is used and prevents flaking such as that which is evident along the bottom edge. A fabulous Islamic Miniature which still has to reveal its full story. Paper Size: 34 x 29.5 cm
