Portrait of a Prince (Possibly Mohammad Mirza)
Not on view
This fine portrait of a young prince was likely displayed in a niche in a palace interior as part of an overall architectural design program. It would have hung alongside portraits of princes, harem beauties and still-life paintings. The painting is rendered in the refined style of the early nineteenth century that combined attention to detail and patterning characteristic of Persian painting with European conventions, mediums and techniques.
