Marteau, Georges. · 1913 · Paris : Bibliothèque d'art et d'archéologie · 6 pictures

Miniatures persanes is a 1913 Paris catalogue of Persian miniature paintings compiled by Georges Marteau from private collections for the Bibliothèque d'art et d'archéologie. The plates show reproduced carpet and bookbinding designs with ornate borders, a patterned medallion cover, and a garden scene with figures and calligraphic panels. A designer could draw on the dense interlaced borders, star-and-rosette field patterns, and small-scale figure compositions set among flowering trees.
