TEHRAN, Oct. 2 (MNA) -- Two personal belongings of Zahiroddoleh are to be put on display in the exhibition “Manifestation of Beauty”, which opens tomorrow at Tehran’s Sahebgharanieh Palace in the Niavaran Complex.
The felt hats of Zahiroddoleh and his wife bearing the name of Imam Ali (AS) and several poems praising the Imam in embroidery and his kashkul (a vessel suspended by a chain and carried by a dervish), which is embossed with patterns and poems, are among the items that will be on display.
A selection of 110 works from the private collection of Fereydun Jahanshahi, including paintings, calligraphy works, coins, documents, and traditional artworks from the Safavid, Afshariyeh, Zand, and Qajar dynasties will be put on view in the exhibition “Manifestation of Beauty”.
Jahanshahi is a researcher of Iranian art and culture.
Ali-Khan Zahiroddoleh, a prominent 19th-century personality of the Davallu Qajar clan, married Nassereddin Shah Qajar's daughter at the age of 16. He was interested in Sufism and was known for his talent. He was a disciple of Safi Ali Shah, one of the influential leaders of the Nematollahi order of dervishes. During the lifetime of Safi Ali Shah he attained a high rank in the order. Upon the demise of Safi Ali Shah in 1898 he replaced him as the leader of the order and adopted the name Safa Ali Shah.
In line with his will, he was buried under a tree in Darband's Zahiroddoleh cemetery in northern Tehran.
