Analysis of the miniature painting 'The Defeat of the Axis Forces'
Hamidreza Norouzi *
Abstract:   (216 Views)

   Mohammad Hossein Mosaverolmolki, also known as Haj Mosaverolmolki, was one of the most prominent contemporary artists in Iran. He excelled in various artistic fields such as drawing, painting, persian miniature painting, calligraphy, designing carpet patterns, and pen-making, producing precious and significant works, securing a lofty position in the history of Iranian art. He not only conveyed the artistic achievements of his predecessors but also, through his skill and artistic passion, adhered to the principles of miniature painting to innovate and bring about remarkable transformations in conventional methods. Among his diverse and extensive spectrum of unique works, there is a particular piece in the field of miniature titled "The Defeat of the Axis Forces" that holds special significance compared to Mosaverolmolki's other works.
   This study focuses on the analysis of the artwork from historical-conceptual and aesthetic perspectives. The aim of this research is to explore the aspects of this artwork from two viewpoints and understand how they function within the technical and narrative structure. It seeks to answer questions regarding the differences in Mosaverolmolki's approach compared to pre-contemporary and contemporary miniaturists in selecting subjects and narratives for creating artwork. Moreover, it aims to analyze the artist's plans for organizing visual elements such as form, color, and composition in the image. This qualitative research employs a descriptive-analytical method, gathering information from library and online sources to qualitatively analyze the data.
   The findings reveal that unlike the traditional visual traditions in persian miniature painting, which were often based on literary sources, this artwork utilized contemporary political and social figures and events, distinguishing itself innovatively from other works in this domain.
