Leila Sharifi · 2021
- Medium
- Gouache and gold leaf on paper

Working in the Persian miniature tradition, Sharifi renders a caravanserai scene with the flat, jewel-toned intensity of Safavid court painting. Every textile pattern is historically researched; every face is a portrait of someone the artist knows.
