EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the exquisite beauty of "Tuhfat al-ahrar (Gift of the free)", a manuscript dating back to 1540. Created by the Uzbek School in the 16th century, this masterpiece measures 28.2 x 18.1 cm and is housed at the Freer Gallery of Art, Smithsonian Institution in the USA. The artwork showcases intricate details executed with nk, opaque watercolor, and gold on paper. It features Persian calligraphy in black nasta liq script by Mahmud Mudhahibb from Bukhara during the Shaybanid dynasty. The manuscript was authored by Jami, who passed away in 1492. This piece transports us to a world filled with intellectual gatherings and discussions within an opulent palace setting. The decorative borders and patterns add depth to its medieval charm while reflecting elements of Islamic art. The illumination technique employed brings life to each miniature painting adorning its pages. As we delve into this work, we are reminded of its significance as a representation of Muslim culture and faith. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, this photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery but also serves as a testament to our shared cultural heritage.
