Portraiture art that is manifested in two forms of Tazhib (decorating the margins of a manuscript) and portraits is comprised of a combination of art and science, each of which have emerged and reached perfection in order to convey certain meanings.
The relationship between the objects and elements in a miniature painting is not natural. Neither people nor any of other elements in a miniature painting have gained so much importance to overshadow the other particles. The glory and unity of colors, specific forms of lines and dots, and the ability to convey visual messages through portraiture, help the artists to reveal their unspoken language of this divine art to all.
This lovely book, exquisitely printed, presents selected miniature paintings, illuminations, Tash'ir (hair-pin ornamentations), and Gol-o-Morgh (flower and bird) patterns of Iranian miniaturists who attended the Fourth Biennial Iranian-Islamic Portraiture Exhibition.
