Fine Art Prints From Heritage Images
Calligraphic exercises and verses of Hafiz (Persian, about 1325-1389), 1575-76. Creator
Calligraphic exercises and verses of Hafiz (Persian, about 1325-1389), 1575-76. This fine calligraphic work is signed and dated by a calligrapher who was highly regarded in both Safavid Iran and Mughal India. Mughal albums typically had a painted portrait or figural scene on one side, and a work of calligraphy on the other. The British civil servant Sir Charles Forbes made his album following that format. The verses are a lament over a lack of wine, beginning: For some days now the Daughter of the Vine has been lost to us, Gone away to tend to her own affairs. Be alert and prepared as a search party. Her dress is of rubies, and she wears a tiara of delicate glass

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of calligraphy and verses by the renowned Persian poet, Hafiz. Created in 1575-76, this exquisite work bears the signature and date of a highly esteemed calligrapher who was revered in both Safavid Iran and Mughal India. Intriguingly, Mughal albums often featured a painted portrait or figural scene on one side, while reserving the other for an exceptional display of calligraphy. Following this tradition, British civil servant Sir Charles Forbes compiled his own album with similar format. The verses depicted here lament the absence of wine, commencing with evocative words: "For some days now the Daughter of the Vine has been lost to us, Gone away to tend to her own affairs". The viewer is urged to remain vigilant and prepared as if partaking in a search party. The imagery further describes her attire adorned with rubies and delicate glass tiara. This particular artwork is illuminated with ink and opaque watercolor embellished with gold on paper. It represents not only an artistic masterpiece but also serves as a testament to cultural heritage from Bukhara in present-day Uzbekistan. Heritage Art/Heritage Images has beautifully captured this treasure through their lens, allowing us to appreciate its intricate details and profound beauty.
