Artists adorn flags with calligraphy

Artists in Mashhad have adorned Muharram mourning flags with the art of Persian calligraphy.

The art is the calligraphy of the Persian language known as one of the most revered arts throughout the history of Iran.

The deliberate pace of writing and the slow twisting and turning of the pen modulates each stork of the Persian calligraphy.

The glorious art has remained one of the most expressive forms of aesthetic refinement in Persian culture to this day.

Iranian Calligraphic Styles, such as Taliq, Nastaliq, Naskh, Thulth, Reqa, Towqi, Shekasteh, Kufic and some other decorative scripts, look charming and cultivate a taste for ascetics and design in every viewer.
