More about the book

Focusing on the intersection of material religion and art, this catalogue explores the visual culture of Naser al-Din Shah's court alongside popular Shiite beliefs during the Naseri period. Pedram Khosronejad highlights how the Shah's Shiite values influenced perceptions of portraiture, particularly regarding representations of the Prophet Mohammad and Imam Ali. The work serves as a significant resource for understanding the relationship between art and religious sentiment in 19th-century Iran.
