EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of eight exquisitely decorated ceramic tiles from the 13th-14th century. Created by the Persian School, these masterpieces are currently housed in the Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France. The intricate designs feature an array of animals, each meticulously crafted with great attention to detail. The central motif is an elegant eight-pointed star that serves as a focal point for the composition. Surrounding it, we find a diverse range of creatures including deer, elephants, birds, and horses. These animals symbolize various aspects of Islamic and Iranian culture and hold significant meaning within their respective contexts. The craftsmanship displayed on these tiles is truly remarkable; every brushstroke tells a story and brings life to each animal depicted. From the graceful movements of horses to the majestic presence of elephants and the delicate feathers of birds - this artwork transports us back in time to ancient Iran. These tiles not only serve as decorative pieces but also offer insights into wildlife and farm animals prevalent during that era. They provide us with glimpses into historical landscapes where livestock played an essential role in everyday life. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this stunning photograph print without compromising its artistic integrity or commercializing its use. It allows art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate these remarkable creations while respecting copyright regulations.
