EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable artifact from the Seljuk period in 12th century Northwest Iran. The Bowl Griffin, originating from the Garrus district, is a true testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of that era. Made from earthenware and adorned with underglaze slip-painted decoration, this small yet intricate bowl measures approximately 6.6 x 16.7 cm (2 5/8 x 6 9/16 in. ). The focal point of this masterpiece is undoubtedly the majestic griffin depicted on its surface. With its powerful wings spread wide and fierce gaze fixed forward, the mythical creature exudes an aura of strength and grandeur. Its meticulously detailed feathers and sharp claws are brought to life through skillful brushwork. As we delve into the historical context surrounding this artifact, it becomes evident that it represents more than just artistic brilliance; it serves as a window into ancient civilizations' beliefs and cultural practices. The Seljuk period was characterized by rich artistic traditions influenced by both Islamic and Persian cultures. Preserved over centuries, this bowl offers us a glimpse into their sophisticated decorative arts scene during that time period. It stands as a tangible reminder of our shared human history—an object worthy of admiration for art enthusiasts, historians, and anyone captivated by the beauty found within ancient relics like these.
