Persia / Iran - Watercolor drawing showing... - Lot 64 - Beaussant Lefèvre & Associés
Persia / Iran - Watercolor drawing showing the plaque of the Order of the Lion and the Sun of the Pahlavi dynasty: a twelve-pointed star in diamond silver on which is fixed a six-pointed star enamelled blue, angled with green grapes, in the center the lion and the sun. Glued to a leaf bearing the legend "IRAN" (small tears). 16 x 14,5cm France, first third of the 20th century. This draft plaque probably illustrates an intermediate model between the order of the Lion and the Sun as it was issued by the Qadjar sovereigns and the order of Homayoun instituted in 1939. A set of grand-crosses of this type made by Arthus-Bertrand, was sold on April 27, 2017 by Thierry de Maigret, lot 147, Bernard Croissy expert.
