About This Gallery:

Persian Dance traditionally was performed by women, while men accompanied on musical instruments. In the ancient times, dancers in Persia received patronage of nobility and kings, (and did not have to "entertain the commoners" to earn survival income). King's Patronage allowed artists to strive for a culturally-sophisticated movement vocabulary, refined dance aesthetics and advanced choreography skills.
