EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite Colophon of the Subhat al-abrar (Rosary of the Pious) in a Haft awrang (Seven thrones), created by Jami during the Safavid dynasty in Iran. Crafted with ink, opaque watercolor, and gold on paper, this masterpiece is a testament to Shah Mahmud Al-Nishapuri's exceptional talent as an artist. Measuring 34.2x23.2 cm, this artwork can be found at the Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution in the USA. The colophon bears significant historical importance as it was commissioned by Sultan Ibrahim Mirza and completed on I Dhu l-hija 963 (6 October 1556). The intricate calligraphy and lettering displayed in this piece are nothing short of extraordinary. Every stroke seems to breathe life into each word, making it a true reflection of Islamic artistry and devotion. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back to Khurasan's rich cultural heritage during the Safavid era. It serves as a reminder that religion played an integral role in shaping artistic expression throughout history. This photograph captures not only religious symbolism but also celebrates the mastery behind handwriting and manuscript creation within Islamic culture. It stands as a tribute to Islam's profound influence on art and its ability to transcend time.
