EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite 19th century print depicts a captivating Peri, a mythological creature from Persian folklore. Originally perceived as malevolent beings, these winged creatures have been reimagined throughout history as beautiful and angelic beings, with benevolent behavior to match their ethereal appearance. The Peri is believed to have originated from ancient Persian mythology, with descriptions varying from being described as ethereal beings, half-human and half-bird, to graceful winged creatures with the faces of beautiful women. This print captures the latter interpretation, with the Peri depicted as a stunning figure, adorned with delicate wings that seem to shimmer in the soft light, and a serene expression on her face. Despite their earlier malevolent reputation, Peris are now often seen as protectors and guardians in Persian mythology. They are said to possess magical powers, including the ability to heal the sick and grant wishes to those who are deserving. This print serves as a beautiful reminder of the transformative power of perception and the enduring allure of mythological creatures. This print, dating back to circa 1860, is a testament to the enduring fascination with Peri and other mythological creatures from around the world. It offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Persian mythology and the timeless beauty of these enchanting beings.
