EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Cross-Shaped Tile from the Ilkhanid dynasty, dating back to the 13th century. Created around 1262, this exquisite ceramic piece is a testament to the rich artistic heritage of Asia. Displayed at the renowned Art Institute of Chicago, it represents an era when decorative arts flourished in Persia. The tile's intricate design features delicate floral patterns and scrollwork that adorn its surface. Crafted using stone paste and fritware painted in lustre over an opaque white glaze, it emanates a sense of elegance and beauty. The brown color palette adds warmth and depth to this religiously significant object. Originating from Kashan or Veramin in Iran, this cross-shaped tile reflects the influence of Islamic art during the Ilkhanate period. Its symbolic shape holds deep meaning within Persian culture and serves as a reminder of religious devotion. Preserved with utmost care, this artifact allows us to appreciate the mastery of unknown artisans who dedicated their skills to create enduring works of art. As we gaze upon this close-up image, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand the craftsmanship that thrived centuries ago. Through capturing such treasures on film, Heritage Images enables us to explore diverse cultures and embrace their artistic legacies.
