Construction was begun by Safavid Shah &lsquo;Abbas I in the late 16<sup>th</sup> century and likely finished around the mid-17<sup>th</sup> century. The lavish interiors and portico of the palace feature remarkable mural paintings by Reza Abbasi and his school, which are characterized by elegant forms and flat fields of color accented by delicate modeling. Also notable is the stunning ceiling of the palace&rsquo;s Music Hall. It is embellished with plaster muqarnas that may have provided improved acoustics as well as visual spectacle.<br />\r\n<br />\r\n<u>Further reading</u>:<br />\r\nKhabir, P. (2016).
