Persian-Arabic Glazed Clay Artistry from Dolmetsch's 1887 Compilation
About the Item
This print represents an exquisite example of Persian-Arabic art, featuring wall cladding made from glazed clay. It is part of "Der Ornamentenschatz," a comprehensive compendium of decorative arts compiled by H. Dolmetsch, published by Julius Hoffmann in Stuttgart in 1887.
This piece exemplifies the fusion of Persian and Arabic influences, showcasing a central floral motif flanked by elaborate border designs and panels.
Highlights of the Print:
- Central Motif: The main focus is a richly decorated vase surrounded by intricate floral patterns, symbolizing the lush gardens often depicted in Persian art.
- Borders: The side panels include vertical patterns with intertwining flora, emphasizing height and the slim design typical of many Persian artworks.
- Color Scheme: Utilizing a monochromatic blue palette, typical of the Iznik pottery style, which gives it a regal and timeless look.
Attractiveness and Decorative Appeal:
The aesthetic appeal of this print lies in its meticulous detail and balanced composition. The symmetry and the harmony of the floral designs are soothing yet intricate, drawing the eye along the length of the panel. This artwork's use of repetitive patterns and complex geometries is common in Islamic art, representing the infinite nature of creation. Such pieces not only serve decorative purposes but are also a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Persian-Arabic artistry, making them perpetually admired and appreciated in both historical and contemporary contexts.
