The ceiling of the Mausoleum of Hafez in Shiraz blooms like a star-lit mandala, each mosaic tile a syllable in a timeless Persian poem. Rendered in the Slow Art format, the intricate geometry and luminous colors unfold in a gentle rhythm, drawing the eye inward and upward. Light dances across glazed tiles of turquoise, indigo, and gold, echoing the mystic beauty of Hafez’s poetry. This meditative visual offers a moment of stillness, inviting viewers to contemplate eternity through art, architecture, and verse.
