Description
English: Painting; a lady offering a flower to a prince. The magnificent turban, with its jewelled and feather ornaments, identify the man as a prince; while the plunging neckline of the woman's dress and her bare feet indicate that she is most likely a courtesan, not a princess. Both figures stand against a hilly landscape and barren sky. No text. Calligraphy on verso. Painted in opaque watercolour on paper.

Notes By the time of Shah Sulayman (1663-1694) European painting had exerted a strong influence on much of Persian court art, resulting in an oddly hybrid style and some unexpected juxtapositions. Here a prince in full regalia, including a turban with a cornucopia of feathers, receives a flower from a girl, probably a courtesan, in a very low-cut dress and bare feet. While the shading on the figures' faces lends them an individuality lacking in earlier more idealized portraits, they nevertheless adhere to a type developed by Shaykh Abbasi.
