Garden Gathering Mug
A vibrant ceramic panel in The Met collection informs the colorful scene on our mug. Created around 1640–50 and attributed to Iran, probably Isfahan, the Museum's assemblage of painted stonepaste tiles depicts a luxuriant garden gathering. Attended by servers offering refreshments, a woman leaning on a bolster pillow makes daring eye contact with the viewer. Her outstretched arm, bearing burn marks associated with mystics and lovers, directs our gaze to a male figure in European dress—perhaps a merchant—kneeling before her.
