1885143011885. Iran Art Qajar School Lovers in Embrace gouache painting on paper nineteenth century represents the courtly aesthetic erotic refinement and dynastic visual language that defined Persian painting under Qajar rule. The composition situates a princely male figure and his adorned companion in intimate embrace reinforcing themes of aristocratic leisure romanticized sovereignty and elite identity in Qajar Iran. The work supports research in Persian court painting gender representation in Islamic art Qajar costume and regalia and nineteenth century Iranian material culture.<br /> <br /> Persian Qajar gouache on paper with gold illuminated border. Depicts a young prince wearing blue and gold coat and karakul headgear embracing female companion adorned with tiara and pearls. Floral and animal illuminated margins including deer and monkeys. Image size 18.5 x 11 inches.<br /> <br /> The prince's distinctive headgear confirms Qajar rather than Zand period attribution aligning the work with the heightened stylization and opulent textile rendering characteristic of nineteenth century Tehran ateliers. Comparable compositions appear in Qajar painting traditions associated with artists such as Mohammad Sadiq whose courtly embrace scenes similarly emphasize costume detail glassware and staged intimacy as markers of refinement. The illuminated border populated by floral and animal motifs situates the lovers within a cosmological and decorative framework typical of Qajar manuscript aesthetics adapted to single-sheet painting. Minor browning to margins and discreet restoration to verso margins not affecting image. Very good. A refined example of Qajar visual culture centered on dynastic elegance and performative intimacy. unknown

1890146641890. Hand painted Persian textile depicting Shah Abbas I nineteenth century a monumental example of Qajar period revivalist visual culture that reinterprets Safavid imperial iconography to articulate Persian kingship martial virtue and historical memory. Centered on one of the most mythologized rulers in Iranian history the composition presents a continuous figural narrative in which Shah Abbas I appears mounted on horseback in a royal hunt sword drawn as he confronts a lion while turbaned cavalry attendants bearing spears observe. A secondary vignette shows the Shah pursuing a wild boar reinforcing long standing Persian associations between sovereignty mastery over nature and military prowess. Rendered in a frontal highly legible style with flattened perspective and rhythmic repetition the imagery translates the visual language of Persian manuscript illustration into large scale textile form reflecting nineteenth century Qajar engagement with earlier Safavid models of centralized authority and dynastic legitimacy.<br /> <br /> Hand painted Persian figural textile. Qajar period nineteenth century. Approximately 117.5 x 51 inches 9.8 x 4.25 feet.<br /> <br /> The upper register introduces a martial tableau of Persian warriors confronting Indian soldiers mounted on elephants imagery that evokes enduring visual memory of imperial expansion and recalls narratives associated with Nader Shah's eighteenth century campaigns against the Mughal Empire. In the Qajar period particularly in the later nineteenth century Safavid rulers such as Shah Abbas were repeatedly invoked across painting lacquer and textile production as symbols of national continuity and restored sovereignty. This textile operates within that historicist framework layering Safavid royal imagery with later martial memory to construct a composite vision of Persian power across centuries. Minor edge tears including one approximately 1 inch and three approximately 3 inches within the border and along the edge not affecting the central figural imagery; colors remain bold and composition visually strong. Overall condition: very good. unknown
1817142321817. A Paris chez Guillaume de Luyne 1658 1653 sur la page de titre gravÂŽe. Un fort vol. au format gd in-12 183 x 120 mm de 8 ff. n.fol. 2 x 272 pp. 185 pp. de Remarques et 11 ff. n.fol. Reliure de l'ÂŽpoque de plein veau marbrÂŽ brun plats jansÂŽnistes dos ˆ nerfs ornÂŽ de filets gras ˆ froid doubles caissons d'encadrement dorÂŽs larges fleurons dorÂŽs semis de pointillÂŽs et de points dorÂŽs titre dorÂŽ palette dorÂŽe en tÂte et queue dentelle dorÂŽe sur les coupes toutes tranches mouchetÂŽes. L'exemplaire s'ouvre sur une dÂŽlicate page de titre ˆ dÂŽcor allÂŽgorique gravÂŽe. Seconde ÂŽdition de l'estimÂŽe traduction de Michel de Marolles. Texte en latin en regard. On peut dire avec certitude que Perse ignora la vie et les hommes. Mais il savait cependant entendre ses ma”tres et ses amis tels que Cornutus ou SÂŽnÂque. Il avait vingt ans quand NÂŽron fut empereur et n'ignora que peu de choses des turpitudes de la Cour. Aussi son oeuvre contient-elle une part de rÂŽelle satire mais par ÂŽcho et sans l'accent que l'expÂŽrience donne ˆ l'indignation. Toutes sortes d'allusions d'ironies de demi-mots font entrevoir seulement entrevoir et presque deviner une cour impÂŽriale qui est celle de Tacite : bassesses et indignitÂŽs orgies et sacrilÂges crimes d'Agrippine et de NÂŽron. Au delˆ de la Cour la ville : manie du bel esprit profusion des prÂŽtentions littÂŽraires superstitions et dÂŽvotions intÂŽressÂŽes cupiditÂŽ cruautÂŽ ˆ l'ÂŽgard des esclaves. Mais il est ÂŽvident que la satire morale domine cette oeuvre. Un beau sto•cisme inspire son auteur un sto•cisme reÂu par enseignement mais que le poÂte vivifie par sa noblesse d'‰me. Les Satires sont pour ainsi dire des sermons sto•ciens. Perse y cÂŽlÂbre vertu et simplicitÂŽ antiques chaste culte de la philosophie nÂŽcessitÂŽ pour chacun de s'examiner en conscience et de conna”tre ses faiblesses au lieu de juger autrui et de se fier aux compliments conquÂte de la vÂŽritable libertÂŽ sur les passions sur la cupiditÂŽ et le gožt du plaisir sur l'ambition et la voluptÂŽ. Chacune de ces satires a de l'ardeur et se prÂŽcipitent en dialogues vifs voires mÂme dramatiques. En somme elles ont la force du sentiment singuliÂrement ÂŽlevÂŽ qui ne cesse de les animer. DÂŽtestant Rome ou plut™t ce qu'elle est devenue JuvÂŽnal fait de ses contemporains une peinture acerbe et sans pitiÂŽ. faisant sans cesse fi du politiquement correct Le tableau parodie d'une Ãuvre perdue qu'il propose de la cour de Domitien le ÇNÂŽron chauveÈ s'il est riche de notations grotesques rend trÂs bien l'atmosphÂre cauchemardesque d'une ÂŽpoque qui exsudait la terreur. On ne saurait parler sans anachronisme de libertÂŽ d'expression quand il s'agit de la Rome impÂŽriale et JuvÂŽnal se garde bien de s'en prendre aux empereurs rÂŽgnants. Ce qui n'empÂcha pas ses contemporains de lire dans ses propos des allusions ˆ l'actualitÂŽ de son temps. La langue de JuvÂŽnal permet de se faire une idÂŽe de la variÂŽtÂŽ des parlers latins selon les classes sociales et les rÂŽgions. Elle est ˆ la fois vigoureuse voire crue et savante. JuvÂŽnal aime jouer du contraste entre les mÃurs des anciens Romains frugaux et barbus et celles de ses contemporains perdus de luxe et effÂŽminÂŽs. Avec Horace JuvÂŽnal constituere un modÂle au xviiesiÂcle pour les Satires de Nicolas Boileau 1666. Emmanuel Kant retiendra quant ˆ lui de ses satires leur dimension morale et citera JuvÂŽnal ˆ plusieurs reprises dans sa Critique de la raison pratique. Angles ÂŽmoussÂŽs. Coiffes ÂŽlimÂŽes ou arasÂŽes. LÂŽgers frottements ÂŽpars affectant par ailleurs la reliure. AurÂŽole claire dans le corps d'ouvrage. Du reste belle condition intÂŽrieure. b42961 unknown
