EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a double-folio from the Haftawrang (Seven Thrones) by Jami, a renowned Persian poet who lived from 1414 to 1492. The artwork, titled "Qays (Majnun) first Glimpses Layla" is an exquisite example of opaque watercolor, ink, and gold on paper. Measuring at 34.2 x 23.2 cm, this masterpiece can be found in the Freer Gallery of Art at the Smithsonian Institution in the United States. It was acquired through the generous support of Charles Lang Freer Endowment. The scene depicted in this print tells a timeless love story that has captivated hearts for centuries. Majnun (also known as Qays), overwhelmed by his passionate love for Layla, catches his first glimpse of her on folio f. 231a. This enchanting piece beautifully captures the essence of Persian poetry and Islamic artistry with its intricate details and vibrant colors. It serves as a testament to Jami's mastery as both a poet and artist. The Haftawrang is an important work within Persian literature, exploring themes of unrequited love and longing through its poetic verses. This particular double-folio transports viewers into Majnun's world where emotions run deep and devotion knows no bounds. As you gaze upon this mesmerizing print, allow yourself to be transported into the realm of majnun-layla - a tale that continues to resonate across cultures
