EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite Engraved Lamp Stand with Interlocking Circles, believed to originate from Iran in the 16th century. The lamp stand is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Persia, featuring intricate patterns and inscriptions that reflect the influence of Islamic art. The black-colored brass lamp stand is adorned with delicate calligraphy and interlacing circles, symbolizing unity and harmony. Its golden accents add a touch of opulence, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. The verses engraved on the lamp stand embody spiritual metaphors, as expressed by Saadi's poetic words: "I said to the candle: 'What is this moth around your face?' It said: 'I am the sultan of beauty; what is the desire of the moth?'". This artifact not only serves as a functional lighting piece but also holds significant cultural and religious value. It represents Iran's deep connection to literature, poetry, and spirituality. Preserved at The Metropolitan Museum of Art (The Met), this unknown masterpiece stands as a testament to human creativity across centuries. Through its intricacy and attention to detail, this Engraved Lamp Stand transports us back in time while showcasing Persian craftsmanship at its finest. As we admire this remarkable artwork captured in close-up detail through photography, we are reminded of our shared global heritage and how art can transcend time and boundaries.
