Description
Tile with banquet scene
Iran, Qajar period, late 19th century
Moulded ceramic with high-relief polychrome decoration on a white background strewn with scrolls and scattered fruits - pomegranates, apples and pears; several courtiers in shimmering costumes and gilded belts are bustling around a bowl resting at the foot of a monumental throne.
Size: 36 x 31 cm (14.2 x 12.2 in.)
Because of its size and the vigour of its relief, this tile clearly belongs to a vast figurative wall covering programme, of which it is only a fragment.
A large Qajar polychrome enameled and moulded pottery tile with a court banquet scene, Iran, late 19th century
