The subject of this portrait, Prince Yahya, was a son of the second ruler of the Qajar dynasty, Fath ‘Ali Shah (reigned 1797–1834). His father appointed him at an early age to govern the province of Gilan, near the Caspian Sea. With its emphasis on his costume’s many pearls, his prominently displayed sword, and his European-style pocket watch, the portrait captures the wealth, authority, and modernity of its youthful subject.
