Evidence
"Fig. 1: Court Scene, attributed to Shaykh ‘Abbāsġ (active 1650–84), seventeenth century, Iran, Isfahan, watercolor and gold on paper"
Remarks
The painting is from an album of single-sheet paintings and calligraphic samples housed in the Walters Art Museum. The paper argues that such paintings evoke the sensory experience of taste (zauq) through tactile gestures, such as characters touching fruit or holding wine cups (p. 135).
