Two lovely vintage numbered prints likely completed by Bihzad around 1480. Forming part of the Muraqqa Gulshan (albums of Persian, Islamic miniature paintings). Of arabic, Persian, Islamic, Middle Eastern origin. Painted circa 15th century. Beautiful detail in these watercolours. One of the Garden of Husayn Bayqara, and one of a Prince in from of a stunning Pavilion. Wonderful reminder of the outstanding craftsmanship, ingenuity and talent of foregone centuries. These two vintage prints have some labelling on the revers which is very helpful. They have numbering too - not sure why? the Garden of Husayn Bayqara is numbered 28, and the other is numbered 74.
Both prints are actually in quite good condition. They are slightly bowed from movement in the frame over the years, but have authentic aged condition to them and don't appear damaged in anyway. The double cream and beige mount in the Pavilion print is in good condition. A few marks, but nothing untoward. The Garden one, has water damage at the bottom of the picture Both frames are gold metal and have suffered knocks, scratches and the like over the years. They were professionally framed likely in the 80s, so are good quality but they do now have an antiquity look about them - I think they can be used as it adds an aged finish, but some might want to reframe. Please have a good look at the photos and decide for yourself on the condition. Both have glass and string - they are heavy, quality frames.
Sizes : 46cm x 62cm frame; 24cm x 40cm aperture
