EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite illustration is taken from a 16th century manuscript of the Haft Awrang, a collection of seven poetic works by the Persian poet, Mawlana Jalal al-Din Rumi. The illustrated page depicts a scene from one of the most famous stories within the collection, the tale of Yusuf and Zulaykha. In this scene, a prince, identified by his crown and royal attire, and a princess, adorned in rich fabrics and jewelry, are depicted in a lush garden setting. The prince, with a gentle expression, holds out a bouquet of flowers towards the princess, who looks back at him with a smile. The garden, filled with vibrant colors and intricate details, is a common motif in Persian art and literature, symbolizing paradise and the beauty of nature. The illustration is executed in ink opaque watercolor and gold on paper, reflecting the high level of craftsmanship and artistic skill of the time. The Haft Awrang manuscript is a precious example of Islamic art from the Middle East, and this page is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Persia. The manuscript is currently housed at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors with its intricate details and beautiful imagery.
