God's creation 1953

"God's Creation" is a 1953 miniature painting by Iranian artist Hossein Behzad (1894-1968). It depicts a scene from Islamic mythology, possibly referencing the creation of Eve. The delicate lines and vibrant colors characteristic of Persian miniature painting are evident in this artwork, where a woman stands behind a tree and two men sit in a desert landscape, their faces turned in her direction. The artwork, which is a valuable example of Behzad's art, is an intriguing depiction of the divine and its relationship to humanity.
