Art Trader Curator's Note:
Art Trader is privileged to offer an exceptionally rare asset: Arghavan Khosravi’s "The Morning Light." This is not a flat print; it is a complex, multi-layered 3D Assemblage. Created during the pivotal lockdown era, this work represents the artist's physical breakthrough into dimensional storytelling. With a global edition of only 20, this is one of the most exclusive editions available in the contemporary secondary market.
Collector's Focus: Why This Asset Demands Attention
-
Institutional Scarcity (Edition of 20): Most limited editions run in the hundreds. At 20 units globally, ownership of "The Morning Light" is statistically harder to secure than many original canvases. This is "Blue-Chip" rarity.
-
Sculptural Materiality: The work commands space. It features a linen-covered book, hand-applied leather cord, and airbrushed detailing mounted on a plywood structure. It projects 6cm off the wall, creating shadows and depth that standard art cannot replicate.
-
The "Red Cord" Narrative: The tension of the leather cord is not just aesthetic; it steers the viewer's eye through the layers of diasporic identity and optimism, a signature motif of Khosravi’s rising market acclaim.
Broker Verified: Structural Integrity & Provenance
Due to the complex mixed media nature of this piece, Art Trader’s NY team has performed a rigorous condition check:
-
3D Elements: Secure. The mounting of the book onto the rayon-covered plywood is solid. The leather cord maintains the artist’s intended tension without slack.
-
Surface: Pristine. The airbrushed acrylic and oil details on the linen book show no signs of handling or abrasion.
-
Provenance: Guaranteed. Includes the original Hand-Signed Certificate of Authenticity (COA) mounted on the verso.
