TEHRAN – Iranian painter Ali Bahreini unveiled two new paintings depicting the martyrdom of Hazrat Fatemeh Zahra (SA), the daughter of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), on Friday, the anniversary of her martyrdom.
The two newly released works portray different moments associated with the martyrdom of Hazrat Fatemeh (SA), Mehr reported.
The first painting depicts the moment of her martyrdom, while the second portrays Imam Ali (AS) mourning over her body during her funeral procession.
Bahreini, an experienced painter and calligrapher known for his religious and historical subjects, has devoted much of his artistic career to depicting figures and events from Islamic history, particularly the lives of the Ahl al-Bayt (the family of Prophet Muhammad).
Born in 1970, in Bushehr province, Bahreini began painting professionally in 1989. Over the course of his career, he has held 18 solo exhibitions in Bushehr province and approximately 11 others in different parts of Iran. He has also participated in 25 group exhibitions.
His artistic approach is primarily realist, although he incorporates elements of traditional Persian miniature painting and Impressionism into his works. Religious themes have been a recurring feature of his artistic output, with paintings such as “The Loneliness of Hazrat Fatemeh,” “The Loneliness of Imam Ali,” “Birth of the Jasmine,” and “Manifestation of the Advent” among his notable works.
