This print showcases a Polychrome Bowl with Cloud Decoration, originating from Iran during the late 17th to early 18th century. The intricate design and vibrant colors of this ceramic artifact are truly mesmerizing. The bowl features a stunning combination of green and white hues, creating a visually striking contrast. The delicate cloud decoration adds an ethereal touch to the piece, reflecting the influence of Islamic art and culture prevalent in Persia at that time. Its patterned design is meticulously painted under a transparent glaze, showcasing the skilled craftsmanship of its creator.
