Viac o knihe

Qajar Portraits is a beautifully-illustrated, comprehensive overview of Qajar imperial portraiture. The items, which include several of the most important works of early Qajar art, clearly depict the political role of portraiture under the Qajars and the influence of Napoleonic portraits on the development of Persia’s early-20th century imperial iconography under Fath ‘Ali Shah, and the use of portraiture in Qajar civil and military Orders of Merit. No other Muslim dynasty, except the Mughals, used portraiture as intensively to further dynastic and political ends.
