EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a stunning bowl from Kashan, Iran, dating back to the Seljuk period in 1211-12 AD. Crafted with stone-paste and adorned with lustre over glaze, this exquisite piece is a testament to the artistic mastery of the Persian School during the 13th century. Measuring at a diameter of 20 cm, this bowl is currently housed in the prestigious Ashmolean Museum at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. The eAshmolean Museum has beautifully captured every intricate detail and vibrant color of this remarkable artifact. The design on this bowl transports us to ancient Persia, evoking images of an enchanting oriental landscape. A mesmerizing array of fish gracefully swim across its surface, their delicate forms capturing our attention. This depiction reflects not only the rich wildlife found in Iranian waters but also symbolizes themes such as abundance and prosperity. As we admire this ceramic masterpiece, we are reminded of Islamic influences that permeated Persian art during that era. The craftsmanship displayed here exemplifies both technical skill and artistic expression characteristic of Seljuk pottery. Bridgeman Images has expertly immortalized this extraordinary work through their lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even if we cannot witness it firsthand. Let us marvel at how art transcends time and space as we delve into centuries-old cultures through photographs like these.
