Painting of Qashqa'i Tribal Life by Bijan Bahadori Kashkuli

1940 - 1960
Description

A now rare painting of tribal life amongst the Qashqa'i nomads of Fars Province, south-west Iran, by the well-known Qashqa'i painter, Bijan Bahadori Kashkuli and painted between 1928 to the 1980s.

Bijan Bahadori Kashkuli, who died in 2015, was a member of the Kashkuli taifeh of the Qashqa'i Confederacy, and who visualised the traditional culture of his people through his watercolours. They are now of historical significance. Born at the right time, he captured the splendour of his people's traditional culture just before it was extinguished, ensuring that the Qashqa'i now possess their own record of their past.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

Persian folk art paintings depict everyday pastoral scenes, traditional nomadic life, and regional activities, executed with clear figurative linework and narrative composition.

These artworks utilize water-based pigments painted onto heavy paper or card, finished with dark ink linework and mounted behind protective glass inside framed structures.

Authentic works feature hand-painted brushwork on age-appropriate paper, distinct artist signatures, natural paint oxidisation, and period-appropriate mounting materials.

Position the artwork against a neutral painted backdrop alongside warm wood furniture and woven textiles to complement its cultural history and colour scheme.

Display the picture away from direct sunlight and damp environments, using UV-protective glass and acid-free mount boards to prevent fading and paper discolouration.
