Description
A richly detailed Persian miniature depicts Alexander the Great in ornate dress consulting with a dervish amid a lush garden filled with flowering trees, attendants, and animals. Gold leaf frames the composition while warm ochres, deep blues, and jewel tones create a densely layered scene of courtly meeting rendered with meticulous brushwork and intricate pattern throughout. Bound with 52 pages of 70lb paper, lined or unlined, behind an anti-scuff matte cover with wraparound artwork, made to order. Notes and sketches kept behind an independent artist's work, not a plain composition cover.
