EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite artwork of Bihzad in his piece titled "Dancing Dervishes, Folio from a Divan of Hafiz, ca. 1480". Created during the 15th century, this Afghan masterpiece transports us to a world filled with color and movement. The image depicts a group of dervishes engaged in an ecstatic dance within a vibrant garden. Their flowing clothing adds to the sense of motion as they twirl and sway gracefully. Each dancer wears a unique headdress, symbolizing their spiritual connection and devotion. Bihzad's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke. The delicate flowers scattered throughout the scene add an element of beauty and tranquility amidst the lively atmosphere. The use of gold accents further enhances the richness and opulence of this mesmerizing artwork. As we gaze upon this miniature masterpiece, we are reminded not only of its artistic significance but also its cultural importance. Rooted in Islamic traditions, these dancers embody both religious devotion and poetic expression through their movements. Preserved by the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this heritage art piece serves as a testament to Bihzad's mastery as well as Iran's rich artistic history. It invites us to appreciate not only the visual beauty but also delve into the literary works that inspired it - namely Hafiz's Divan-i-Hafiz-i-Shirazi. Through this photo print, we are transported back in time to witness an enchanting moment frozen forever by Bihzad's skillful hand.
