Presenting a rare and dazzling Persian miniaturepainting you will not find elsewhere. It is a handmade modern reproductionfrom the Haft Awrang of Jami attributable to the Persian artist Abdullah al-Shirazi.

TheHaft Awrangis a compilation of sevenmasnavipoems and constitutes the major poetical work of Jami (d. 1492) composed in the second half of the 15th century.

The artwork depicts king Solomon and Bilqis (queen of Sheba) speaking openly to each other, exchanging their innermost secrets and revealing their mutual quest for gratification. They are seated in very colorful and elaborate infrastructureand surroundings of flora and fauna.

The composition contains several signs of Solomons legendary civil and divine authority such as his white face cloth and flaming nimbus, the winged angel and hoary demon. His reputation for wisdom and justice is signified by the elderly man seated on the terrace and by the aged woman presenting a petition at the door. In all likelihoodthe woman with babe in arms refers to Solomons celebrated proposal to split a child between two contesting mothers.

The verse inscribed in gold over the palace doorway invests these various Solomonic symbols with a more coherent meaning.

This isPersian styleart at its finest. The handmade artwork has been brilliantly achieved with use of meticulous brushwork and fine watercolors, ink and gold.
