This is a medieval Persian miniature dating to 1436 AD, showing Muhammad leading Jesus, Moses, Abraham and other prophets in prayer. Miniature painting became widespread in Iran during the 1200s, and blossomed over the next centuries.
The pigments were mineral based and keep their colors very well if preserved correctly, and great attention was lavished on the backgrounds. Artists were usually grouped in workshops, often working for monarchs. The Mongol invasion of 1219, which destructive, helped spur miniature painting with Chinese influence.
Many artists drew pictures of Muhammad giving sermons, engaged in activities, or receiving revelations from Gabriel. Iran developed its own painting styles with its Persian background; Tabriz and Shiraz were the most important places for it. There were non-Persian illuminated manuscripts created outside Iran as well, including in Egypt, but fewer of them have survived.
