About the Item

Artist: Zamani Zamani (Iranian/American, 1922-2016) Title: Unknown Year: Circa 2009 Medium: Watercolor with gold paint or gold leaf on paper Sight size: 20.75 x 20 inches. Framed size: 31.25 x 29.25 inches Signature: Signed lower right “Zaman” by the artist Condition: Very good Frame: Framed in original frame This painting is by the noted Iranian/American artist Zaman Zamani. It was incuded in a one man show Zamani had at the Hourian Gallery in San Francisco in January, 2010. The painting, mat and frame are in very good condition. I am not sure if the brilliant gold areas on the woman's headdress and sleeves, which stand in relief compared to the rest of the painting surface, are gold paint or gold leaf. Zamani was born in 1922 in Babol, Iran, near the southern coast of the Caspian Sea. At the age of five, Zaman's uncle noticed his eye for design and color. His uncle purchased him a set of colored pencils and Zamani spent many hours drawing and painting in his uncle's pharmacy. The family moved to Tehran when Zamani was 15 years old. There he and his brother attended Dar-ol-Fonoon High School. Zamani later received his bachelor of arts from Tehran University and his masters of fine arts from Istanbul University in Turkey. Best known for his watercolors and oil paintings, Zamani demonstrated his expertise in various medias and was a well recognized and accomplished artist in photography, tile painting, ceramics, silkscreen, pen and ink illustration, and sculpture. He found his favorite subjects in nature and was well known for his seascapes and snow scenes. He created a delicate balance between traditional Persian painting and contemporary fine art. Zamani's contribution to the art world extended beyond that of fine art and into the commercial sector. As Art Director for Franklin Publications in Tehran, Iran, during the 60's and 70's, he illustrated numerous children's books including an extensive collection of textbooks for the elementary schools in Iran. At the invitation of the Ford Foundation in 1960, Zamani was chosen as part of a group of artists who studied children and educational book illustration at Columbia University. Selected Zaman Zamani paintings remain on permanent display at Iran's National Art Museum in Tehran. Zaman's collection of photographs won him the bronze prize from Kodak -- National Geographic Society in 1960. Zamani moved to Southern California in 1975. His work continues to be shown in individual as well as collective exhibitions in the United States, Iran, and throughout the world .
