| Description |
Painted with the delicate touch of a master, this
exquisite picture is a superb example of Persian
court art. The use of costly parchment further
suggests that it was originally part of a major
work created for an important patron. It depicts
a young prince seated with an older man, most
probably his teacher. The attention to the details
of nature--to the birds, the trees and the
flowers--is in the classic Persian tradition.
Gazing upon the serene beauty of the scene, we
are transported into a timeless dream world.
