Lovers and beloveds: A composite of scenes from Persian, Urdu, and Sanskrit literature, c
Lovers and beloveds: A composite of scenes from Persian, Urdu, and Sanskrit literature, c. 1735. The figure of Joseph, identified by his halo, sits in the center near the top of this painting of heroes and heroines of ten different Persian, Urdu, and Sanskrit romances. The depicted scene occurs after Joseph has been purchased by Zulaykha in Egypt. Zulaykha, wishing to show him off to her friends and acquaintances, invites them to her home where she supplies oranges and knives. When the women see Joseph, they all are so distracted by his divine beauty that they accidentally cut their hands while peeling their oranges, but remain mesmerized by his appearance. The dramatic scene in the center is from the Persian romance of Khusrau and Shirin, in which Farhad, a stonecutter who loved Shirin, threw himself to his death from a mountaintop after hearing news of Shirins death, falsely sent to him from his rival Khusrau. The emaciated Majnun is in the lower right corner. Every vignette has been identified with a tiny Persian inscription

Lovers and Beloveds - A Tapestry of Romance and Tragedy
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print transports us to a world steeped in the enchanting tales of Persian, Urdu, and Sanskrit literature. Created around 1735, this intricate painting showcases scenes from ten different romances that have captivated hearts for centuries. At the center of this mesmerizing composition sits Joseph, his halo illuminating his divine presence. The depicted scene unfolds after Joseph's purchase by Zulaykha in Egypt. Eager to showcase her prized possession to friends and acquaintances, Zulaykha invites them into her home where oranges and knives are provided. However, upon catching sight of Joseph's ethereal beauty, the women become so entranced that they accidentally cut themselves while peeling their fruits - yet remain spellbound by his appearance. The dramatic centerpiece portrays a heart-wrenching moment from the Persian romance between Khusrau and Shirin. Farhad, a stonecutter deeply enamored with Shirin, tragically takes his own life upon receiving false news of her demise sent by his rival Khusrau. In the lower right corner stands Majnun; emaciated but consumed by love's fervor as depicted in this poignant vignette. Each scene within this masterpiece is meticulously identified through tiny Persian inscriptions accompanying every vignette—a testament to its rich cultural heritage. With its vibrant colors and intricate details capturing moments both tender and tragic from these timeless literary works, "Lovers and Beloveds" serves as an exquisite tribute to the power of love across cultures throughout history.
