Handpainted vintage Persian miniature - unusual vertical painting, mounted in red velvet with a Khatam marquetry frame. Frame is has intricate tiny mosiac work with bright green and red inlay even on the side edges. The painting depicts riders and horses engaged in a polo-like game. Easel back, possibly a replacement of the original. Also a hanging mount. Excellent condition except one little loss of wood to a piece of stringing on the bottom right corner (see image). Circa mid 20th century. Marks you can see on the image are light reflections only.
