"Lot 77 Sotheby's London UK. 10/18/1995 From the Kulliyat of Sa'di, Solomon Enthroned, Shiraz, circa 1580 -1590 1

	I have a particular fondness for the illumination of Shiraz art. If we were to judge it on how faces were painted it would be a dismal genre indeed but when I look at something like the cloudband to the left then I see the magic of the art of Shiraz.
