Zamina-yi Razi

Razi Ardistani Isfahani, Zamana (b. 1700), a painter and poet with the noms de plume Anwar and Razi. He also had mastery of painting and was well-known as Zamana-yi Naqqash. Aqa Buzurg Tihrani states, ‘The author of Qamus-i Turki makes mention of his Divan of poetry and a mathnavi, but I assume that he confused him with Razi Hindi.’ The following couplet is by him:

If I flee from people like wild beasts,

My excuse is quite justified, since I haven’t seen a man.

Asar-afarinan (3/ 82).
