Summary

Description
English: Portrait of the Qajar prince Emamverdi Mirza. Made in Iran, dated second half of the 19th-century.

Oil on canvas, the elderly prince with pronounced white beard wearing a Kirman coat and holding a stick in his right hand, a high black wool hat on his head, identification cartouche above his left, areas of repainting, two marks on the surface, framed.

The inscription has been repainted. It is partially unreadable, but the majority reads: hasb al-farmayesh-e navvab-e mostatab-e ashraf-e vala haji muhammad husayn hushmat al-saltanah tasvir-e mobarak-e marhum-e maghfur shahzadeh imam Verdi mirza kashikchi bashi-ye … marhum-e maghfur-e fath’alishah-e qajar "By the order of …. Haji Muhammad Husayn Hishmat al-Saltana, the … portrait of the deceased Prince Imam Verdi Mirza …the Chief Guard of Fath 'Ali Shah"

When the original inscription was written over it seems to have been misread. It is most probable it meant Muhammad Husayn Hishmat al-Dawla.
Date Second half of the 19th-century
