Miniature painting with colors on paper. Persia, 19th cent.
An area marked by posts between hills and 13 riders, all busy playing polo. Very animated, finely precise depiction; riders and steeds in most diverse colors. Amusing fall of one rider right below, his horse lying on its back. On the sidelines are observers, as well as text cartridges, text also on the back. The leaf edges are generally good, painting in very good condition. In passe-partout.
