Description |
English: This large-scale illuminated calligraphic piece in square format appears to have been executed in Iran during the 19th century. It includes a number of details typical of Shi'i popular and devotional materials produced during the later part of the Qajar period (1785-1925). In all likelihood, it functioned as a talismanic object for an Iranian Shi'i patron.
Français : Feuille volante carrée de calligraphie enluminée réalisée en Iran au XIXe siècle. Ce document, qui porte de nombreux motifs typiques de l'art populaire Chiite de la fin de la Dynastie kadjar était probablement utilisé comme talisman par un fidèle chiite. |
