AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mehrdad Sadri. Tehran, *1944.
Magic (Folds and Face). 2006.
Oil on canvas.

Signed bottom left: “SADRI 06”. On canvas. 120 x 100 cm (47.2 x 39.4 in).

Mehrdad Sadri counts among the formative representatives of contemporary Persian-European painting, whose work virtuously combines traditional oriental mysticism with the forms of Western modernity. His works are characterized by masterful light handling and a subtle, surreal refined aesthetics of veiling.

Large-format, monumentally impressive work of exceptional painterly refinement, in which warm gold- and earth-light penetrates the photorealistically worked folds and the hazy visage plastically.

The play of revelation and concealment is one of the central, recurring main motifs in Sadri’s multifaceted oeuvre.

A mature testament to the Vienna creative phase of the artist, which impressively manifests the intimate dialogue between eastern poetry and European painting school.

Masterful fusion of organic fabric structure and human physiognomy as an iconic metaphor for transience, protection and the search for what lies behind it.

In excellent condition; the edges of the outer sides minimally rubbed due to the work. See photos

Works of this masterful execution and impressive dimensions are mainly in private collections and represent a rare opportunity on the international auction market.

Seller's Story

Art dealing has been in our family: my grandfather was an art dealer, and my mother is an antique dealer. In 2017, I continued this tradition and founded the Antoni Art Dealership—with the goal of making high-quality European art accessible to a new audience. Since then, we have passionately dedicated ourselves to trading paintings from the 19th century to the present. Our portfolio is complemented by our own gallery for contemporary art, where we present and promote current artistic positions. Our expertise, cross-generational experience, and a carefully curated selection make us a special address for collectors, art lovers, and the curious.
