~From a current perspective, recent advances made in the expanding study of Persian, Indian, and Turkish painting and drawing seem prodigious, even heady.

When barely old enough to hold a pencil, I filled school notebooks with portraits of family, teachers, and classmates.

This chronology provides a summary of the numerous courts and dynasties whose art is represented in this catalogue, although in its highly condensed format, the text may in some cases appear more definitive than a lengthier discussion would countenance.
