At this time, unlike before, it was not the kings or the nobles, who would be supporting the artists and their work, but it was the ordinary crowd who requested artists to paint the scenes they were interested in. The most beautiful examples of this kind of painting, are preserved in major museums of Tehran, and in the private collections, inside and abroad. The Iranian paintings, through their richness, offer a special joy unlike anything else. They keep a vast connection with the epic stories. In Iranian paintings, the nude body of a human is not a way of expression.
Iranian painting is considered as one of the greatest schools of out in Asia.
Splendor and luminosity have not been better expressed in any other culture. Bright skies, astonishing beauty of spring blossoms, and among them, humans with splendid garments who hate and love, are jovial or melancholic, form the general themes of the Iranian paintings.
