ASAR GALLERY OF ART   ISFAHAN SCHOOL: Shah Abbas proclaimed Isfahan the capital of Persia in 969 A.H. With the intent of making his new capital a center of civilized art and knowledge, Abbas commissioned the construction of several prominent mosques, universities and grand public buildings. As a result, renowned and emerging artists resettled to Isfahan in great numbers, founding one of the great schools of the Persian artistic tradition.   Paintings from the artists of the Isfahan School were created on single sheets of thick paper, and are now the ornamental exhibits of grand museums around the world. Isfahan artists demonstrated a personal, sensitive connection to their work, paying great attention to detail and perfection in imagery. The School's philosophy was often described as an attempt, through art, to represent the "perfection and beauty of God's creations." To this day, the relics of Isfahan evoke a tranquility and deep emotional connection with the physical world.
