Abstract

This text is an attempt to show some figurative motifs in SAQQA – TALARs’ paintings. Even 3 centuries after Islam entered Iran, the North was still populated by followers of the 'Mazda'. It follows that Northern Iran is the best place to study the influence of Mazda'ism on the social and cultural lives of Iranians. This paper describes a type of traditional architecture of Northern Iran, which the author believes to have originated from ancient Iranian culture. I find that this construction is mostly made of wood and is called "SAQQA – TALAR" to natives. ”SAQQA“ means one who gives water to others. On the other hands, all SAQQA – TALARs are devoted to Abolfazl, the valorous brother of imam Hossein, the third Shiite Islamic leader. In spite of this , there are certain symbols and signs in the SAQQA – TALARs which have historical importance and date from the time when Anahita was worshipped. These are signs directly or indirectly related to water, such as serpants, dragons, horned serpent- dragons, the two guardian angles of water and greenery ( Khordad and Mordad), the king of rain among others. SAQQA – TALARs are present in holy places like shrines (imam- zades) , burial grounds , and "tekyes "( which are also traditional architectural structures) . These uniqe constructions are found exclusively in the north, especially in Mazandaran and are beautifully ornamented with attractive designs. These are dichotomized based on varieties of forms and content: a: Religious designs b: Secular designs Prophets , imams, MYTHS and EPICS , Folklore and legends , Ancient Farsi literary texts , Astrology and constellations , Fantastic creations and Geometrical motifs are most decorative motive. Calligraphy also plays a very important role in defining the identity of SAQQA- TALARs. Also noteworthy are the intricate and beautiful woodcarvings. Various Pillar forms, Pillar heads sculpted like dragons or human forms are all artistic displays of the abilities of local artisians. I conducted interviews in 2 SAQQA– TALARs, Kordkola and Shiyade and attempt to show how this motifs can identified Iranian art and folklore. In this comparative study, Tools analysing motives based on the concepts MYTHS, EPICS and religious symbol .Studying this decorative painting, can assist us to become more aware of reality, identity and content Of motifs and the roles that played in history art of Qajar period in Mazandaran. Common elements and motifs in two SAQQA- tallars are religious usage, wooden structure, epic and litrature content. Some different elements are in dimension, content and angle figures. The Lion and Sun motif (shir o khorshid) is one of the better known emblems of Iran, and between 1964 and 1979 was an element in Iran's national flag. Although first attested in the 15th century, its symbolism is significantly older and is tied to notions of power and kingship. This motif is common in SAQQA- TALARs painting.
