This artwork is inspired by the traditional Persian Gol-o-Morgh (Flower & Bird) style of the Qajar period. In creating this piece, the artist sought to preserve and revive traditional Persian painting techniques while drawing inspiration from the elegance, craftsmanship, and aesthetic values of the Qajar period. The techniques included the use of candle soot to create delicate shading behind the flower and bird motifs, adding depth and atmosphere to the composition, also the application of a layer of oil to enhance the luminosity of the surface and to help preserve the artwork over time.

For this work, the artist was awarded First Prize in the Iranian Youth Art Competition and received an Honorary Diploma (Diploma of Merit).

Single illuminated painting on paper, tasheer, gouache, watercolour & Persian ink, heightened in gold, 16 x 18cm; framed & glazed.
