EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a folio from "Aja ib al-Makhluqat" (Wonders of Creation) by al-Qazvini, dating back to the early 15th century. The artwork, created by the Islamic School during that period, measures 32.7x22.4 cm and is currently housed in the Freer Gallery of Art at the Smithsonian Institution in the USA. The image captures both sides of this remarkable folio; on one side, we see symbols representing Jupiter and Saturn, while on the other side there is a diagram for Fixed Stars. The manuscript originates from either Baghdad, Iraq or Eastern Turkey. Intriguingly, this piece offers a glimpse into ancient scientific knowledge and astrological practices. It portrays men engaged in scientific pursuits – an astronomer and an astrologer – highlighting their dedication to understanding celestial phenomena. This depiction reflects the rich tradition of Iranian scientists within Muslim culture. The intricate details rendered with opaque watercolor, ink, gold & silver on paper demonstrate exquisite craftsmanship prevalent during that era. Through its script and text dedicated to astronomic observations and astrology principles, this folio serves as a testament to humanity's enduring curiosity about our place in the universe. Bridgeman Images has expertly captured this historical artifact through their photography expertise while preserving its essence for future generations to appreciate and study further.
