ELHAM ASSAR KASHANI

Living amongst the heavenly designs of carpets, paintings and illustrated dishes depicting lovers surrounded by birds singing and musical instruments breaking the silence of image through playing the tune of affection derived from rich Persian literature, has summoned me into the world of sheer beauty of Persian miniature painting and its heavenly illustrations from an early age.
