Classical Persian miniature painting

Available for hire

Paints in the classical Safavid Persian miniature tradition — ultramarine and lapis grounds, flat gold leaf skies, intricate garden pavilion architecture, and fine brushwork figures in profile. Every composition is a jeweled world unto itself.
