EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable ceramic artifact known as "Bowl with a Majlis Scene by a Pond" originating from Iran and dated A. H. 582 / A. D. 1186. Created by the talented Abu Zayd, who was not only an accomplished poet but also composed love poems inscribed on this very bowl, it represents the rich cultural heritage of Persia during the twelfth century. The intricate details of this stonepaste pottery are truly mesmerizing. Glazed in opaque turquoise polychrome, the colors come alive and add depth to the scene depicted on its surface. The majlis, or council gathering, takes place against the backdrop of a serene pond surrounded by lush vegetation. As we delve into this artwork's narrative, we witness men engaging in lively discussions and performances while birds gracefully soar above them.
