پرتره ناصرالدین‌شاه - Public domain portrait painting

Kamal ol-Molk (1847—1940) was born in 1848 into a family that already had a considerable amount of artists: his father, uncles and brother were artists. So he continued the family tradition, he studied art at Dar-ul-Funun School and as a student, he began to draw the attention of his professors. Invited by the Shah of Persia to be a court painter, Kamal-ol-Molk produced some of his greatest works of art there. His work consisted mainly of landscapes and portraits, but certainly, The Mirror Hall is his best-known work.
