EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a scholar from the renowned "Lights of Canopus" collection, created in 1847 by the Persian School. The artwork, measuring 35x21.5 cm, is housed in the prestigious Walters Art Museum in Baltimore, USA. The image depicts Folio 2b from Ms. W. 599, which is a copy of Anvar-i Suhayli (the Lights of Canopus), translated into Persian by Mirza Rahim of Kalilah wa-Dimnah (The Fables of Bidpay). This ancient Indian collection of animal fables, known as Panchatantra, follows the journey of Burzuyah, a Persian physician who embarks on a mission to India and discovers a book filled with stories narrated by anthropomorphized animals residing there. In this particular scene, we see what appears to be Burzuyah himself; an erudite figure painted on paper and seated comfortably while engrossed in his studies. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of moral teachings and human behavior through its vivid colors and intricate details. This remarkable piece not only reflects the rich cultural exchange between Persia and India but also highlights the importance placed on knowledge and morality during that era. It serves as an enlightening reminder that wisdom knows no boundaries or limitations - it transcends time and geographical borders. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are transported back to an era where storytelling was revered for its ability to impart valuable life
