EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "A Groom with a Horse" created in 1694 by the Persian School, an esteemed Islamic artist from the late seventeenth century. The artwork, measuring 14.4x21.5 cm, beautifully combines gouache and gold paint on paper to depict a scene of agricultural occupation. In this piece, we see a single man standing next to his horse in a farm setting. The groom, portrayed with Asian ethnicity, exudes grace and expertise as he tends to the magnificent equine creature before him. With one hand holding onto the horse's tail and another gently touching its saddle, he demonstrates his deep connection and care for these animals. The intricate details of this illustration highlight both the skill of the illustrator Muin Musawwir and the rich cultural heritage of Persian art. The use of gold paint adds an ethereal touch to the composition while emphasizing its significance within Islamic art traditions. Through this artwork's animal themes and depiction of farm life during that era, it offers us a glimpse into seventeenth-century agriculture practices. It serves as a testament to human-animal relationships at that time when horses played an integral role in various aspects of daily life. This particular print is part of a private collection but has been made available through eChristies Images thanks to Bridgeman Images' extensive archive. Its timeless beauty continues to captivate viewers today with its historical narrative and artistic excellence.
