country�察 �he¨d  forgotten  these  old  styles�察 �if  he¨d  ever  actually  learned  them。 
Though the value of many miniaturists resides precisely in the splendid models 
of form they¨ve mitted to memory�察�had Velijan truly forgotten them�察�he¨d 
have bee an even greater illustrator。 Still�察�there were two benefits�察�of which 
he wasn¨t even aware�察�to harboring the teachings of his mentors in the depths 
of  his  soul  like  a  pair  of  unconfessed  sins�此 �1。  For  such  a  gifted  miniaturist�察�
clinging  to  old  forms  inevitably  stirred  feelings  of  guilt  and  alienation  that 
would  spur  his  talent  to  maturity。  2。  In  a  moment  of  difficulty�察 �he  could 
always   recall   what   he   claimed   to   have   forgotten�察  �and   thus�察  �he   could 
successfully plete any new subject�察�history or scene by recourse to one of 
the  old  Herat  models。  With  his  keen  eye�察 �he  knew  how  to  harmonize  what 
he¨d  learned  from  the  old  forms  and  Shah  Tahmasp¨s  old  masters  in  new 
pictures。 Herat painting and Istanbul ornamentation happily merged in Olive。 
As  with  all  of  my  miniaturists�察 �I  once  paid  an  unannounced  visit  to  his 
home。 Unlike my work area and that of many other master miniaturists�察�his 
was  a  filthy  confusion  of  paints�察 �brushes�察 �burnishing  shells�察 �his  folding 
worktable  and  other  objects。  It  was  a  mystery  to  me�察 �but  he  wasn¨t  even 
embarrassed  by  it。  He  took  no  outside  jobs  to  earn  a  few  extra  silver  coins。 
After  I  related  these  facts�察 �Black  said  it  was  Olive  who  showed  the  most 
enthusiasm  for  and  the  most  ease  with  the  styles  of  the  Frankish  masters 
admired by his late Enishte。 I understood this to be praise from the deceased 
fool¨s  point  of  view�察 �mistaken  though  it  was。  I  can¨t  say  whether  Olive  was 
more deeply and secretly bound to the Herat styles!which went back to his 
father¨s mentor Siyavush and Siyavush¨s mentor Muzaffer�察�back to the era of 
Bihzad and the old masters!than he appeared to be�察�but it always made me 
wonder whether Olive harbored other hidden tendencies。 Of my miniaturists

��I  told  myself  spontaneously���察 �he  was  the  most  quiet  and  sensitive�察 �but  also 
the most guilty and traitorous�察�and by far the most devious。 When I thought 
about the mander¨s torture chambers�察�he was the first to e to mind。 
��I both wanted and didn¨t want him to be tortured。�� He had the eyes of a jinn�察�
he noticed and took account of everything�察�including my own shortings�察�
however�察 �with  the  reserve  of  an  exile  able  to  acmodate  himself  to  any 
situation�察�he¨d rarely open his mouth to point out mistakes。 He was wily�察�yes�察�
but  not  in  my  opinion  a  murderer。  ��I  didn¨t  tell  Black  this。��  Olive  didn¨t 
believe in anything。 He had no faith in money�察�but he¨d nervously squirrel it 
away。  Contrary  to  what  is  monly  believed�察 �all  murderers  are  men  of 
extreme  faith  rather  than  unbelievers。  Manuscript  illumination  leads  to 
painting�察 �and  painting�察 �in  turn�察 �leads  to!God  forbid!challenging  Allah。 
Everybody  knows  this。  Therefore�察 �to  judge  by  his  lack  of  faith�察 �Olive  is  a 
genuine  artist。  Nevertheless�察 �I  believe  that  his  God´given  gifts  fall  short  of 
Butterfly¨s�察�or even Stork¨s。 I would¨ve wanted Olive to be my son。 As I said 
this�察�I wanted to incur Black¨s jealousy�察�but he only responded by opening his 
dark   eyes   and   staring   with   childlike   curiosity。   Then   I   said   Olive   was 
magnificent  when  he  worked  in  black  ink�察 �when  he  rendered�察 �for  pasting  in 
albums�察 �warriors�察 �hunting  scenes�察 �Chinese´inspired  landscapes  full  of  storks 
and cranes�察�pretty boys gathered beneath a tree reciting verse and playing lutes�察�
and when he depicted the sorrow of legendary lovers�察�the wrath of a sword´
bearing�察�enraged shah�察�and a hero¨s expression of fear as he dodged the attack 
of a dragon。 
^Perhaps  Enishte  wanted  Olive  to  do  the  last  picture  that  would  show  in 
great  detail�察 �in  the  style  of  the  Europeans�察 �Our  Sultan¨s  face  and  manner  of 
sitting�察院�Black said。 
Was he trying to confuse me�拭�
^Supposing  this  were  the  case�察 �after  Olive  killed  Enishte�察 �why  would  he 
abscond with a picture he was already familiar with�拭院�I said。 ^Or�察�if you like�察�
why would he murder Enishte in order to see that picture�拭院�
We both pondered these questions for a while。 
^Because  there¨s  something  missing  in  that  painting�察院 �said  Black。  ^Or 
because  he  regrets  something  he  did  and  is  scared  by  it。  Or  even´ ̄  he 
thought for a while。 ^Or�察�having killed Enishte�察�he might¨ve taken the painting 
to do further harm�察�for the sake of having a memento�察�or even for no reason at 
all。 Olive is�察�after all�察�a great illustrator who¨d naturally have a lot of respect for 
a beautiful painting。 ̄ 
281 
 
^We¨ve  already  discussed  in  what  ways  Olive  is  a  great  illustrator�察院 �I  said�察�
growing angry。 ^But none of Enishte¨s illustrations is beautiful。 ̄ 
^We haven¨t yet seen the last painting�察院�Black said boldly。 
 
The Attributes of Butterfly 
 
He is known as Hasan Chelebi from the Gunpowder Factory district�察�but to me 
he¨s always been ^Butterfly。 ̄ This nickname always reminds me of the beauty 
of  his  boyhood  and  youth�此 �He  was  so  handsome  that  those  who  saw  him 
didn¨t  believe  their  eyes  and  wanted  a  second  look。  I¨ve  always  been 
astonished by the miracle of his being as talented as he is handsome。 He¨s a 
master  of  color  and  this  is  his  greatest  strength�察 �he  painted  passionately�察�
reeling with the pleasure of applying color。 But I cautioned Black that Butterfly 
was flighty�察�aimless and indecisive。 Anxious to be just�察�I added�此�He¨s a genuine 
miniaturist  who  paints  from  the  heart。  If  the  arts  of  ornamentation  are  not 
meant to cater to intelligence�察�to speak to the animal within us�察�or to bolster 
the pride of the Sultan�察�that is�察�if this art is meant to be only a festival for the 
eyes�察�then Butterfly is indeed a true miniaturist。 He makes wide�察�easy�察�blithe 
curves�察�as if he¨d taken lessons from the masters of Kazvin forty years ago�察�he 
confidently  applies  his  bright�察 �pure  colors�察 �and  there¨s  always  a  gentle 
circularity hidden in the arrangement of his paintings�察�but I¨m the one who 
trained him�察�not those long´dead masters of Kazvin。 Maybe it¨s for this reason 
that  I  love  him  like  a  son�察 �nay�察 �more  than  a  son!but  I  never  felt  any  awe 
toward him。 As with all of my apprentices�察�in his boyhood and adolescence�察�I 
beat him freely with brush handles�察�rulers and even pieces of wood�察�but this 
doesn¨t mean I don¨t respect him。 Though I beat Stork frequently with rulers�察�I 
respect  him  too。  In  contrast  to  what  the  casual  onlooker  might  assume�察 �a 
master¨s beating doesn¨t rid the young apprentice of jinns of talent and the 
Devil�察 �but  only  suppresses  them  temporarily。  If  it  happens  to  be  a  good 
beating�察 �and  deserved�察 �later  on  the  jinns  and  the  Devil  will  rise  up  and 
stimulate  the  developing  miniaturist¨s  resolve  to  work。  As  for  the  beatings  I 
administered to Butterfly�察�they shaped him into a content and obedient artist。 
I at once felt the need to praise him to Black�此 �Butterfly¨s artistry�察院�I said�察�
^is solid proof that the picture of bliss�察�which the celebrated poet ponders in 
his masnawi�察�is only possible through a God´given gift for understanding and 
applying color。 When I realized this�察�I  also realized what Butterfly lacked�此�He 
hadn¨t known that momentary loss of faith that Jami refers to in his poetry as 
282 
 
 ̄the dark night of the soul。^ Like an illustrator painting in the great happiness 
of Heaven�察�he sets to his work with conviction and contentment�察�believing that 
he can make a blissful painting�察�which he does succeed in doing。 Our armies 
besieging  Doppio  castle�察 �the  Hungarian  ambassador  kissing  the  feet  of  Our 
Sultan�察�Our Prophet ascending through the seven heavens�察�these are of course 
all inherently happy scenes�察�but rendered by Butterfly�察�they bee flights of 
ecstasy springing from the page。 In an illustration of mine�察�if the darkness of 
death  or  the  seriousness  of  a  government  session  weighs  heavy�察 �I¨ll  tell 
Butterfly to  ̄color it as you see fit�察亜�and thereupon�察�the outfits�察�leaves�察�flags 
and  sea  that  lay  there  muted  as  if  sprinkled  with  dirt  meant  to  fill  a  grave 
begin  to  ripple  in  the  breeze。  There  are  times  when  I  think  Allah  wants  the 
world  to  be  seen  the  way  Butterfly  illustrates  it�察 �that  He  wants  life  to  be 
jubilation。   Indeed�察  �this   is   a   realm   where   colors   harmoniously   recite 
magnificent  ghazals  to  each  other�察 �where  time  stops�察 �where  the  Devil  never 
appears。 ̄ 
However�察�even Butterfly knows this isn¨t enough。 Someone must have quite 
rightly!yes�察�in good measure!whispered to him that in his work everything 
was as joyous as a holiday�察�but devoid of d
