The Painted Beloved
Persian Miniature Painting and Poetry
Step into a luminous world of Persian miniature painting where every garden, palace, gesture, and glance becomes part of a love story from classical poems. This delicate art form is more than decoration — it is a visual language of symbolism, beauty, and imagination — a place where poetry becomes image, and colour carries emotion. In this immersive 4-week course, we will explore love, desire, devotion, and power through the hidden meanings found in secret glances, cypress trees, ornament, and paradise gardens. A course for those who wish to paint with depth and meaning — and enter the beloved world of Persian art through love stories.
