With sixty-five works from the library’s Persian, Turkish, Arabic and Armenian collections, as well as early printed books and maps from Europe, the exhibition also features paintings and drawings by three of the most renowned artists of the Safavid period: Reza ‘Abbasi, Muhammad Zaman and Mu‘in Musavvir.
