| description |
During the Taimurid and Safawid
periods the masters introduced a
number of dyes for coloring paper for
the purpose of calligraphy and
paintings. Historical analysis was carried
out to identify different dyes, shade of
colors, and the application of
techniques recommended in the paperdyeing
process based on Persian
historical treatises.
Among the many dyes introduced by
the masters, henna has been the most
recommended, with a ratio of 1:10
henna and water. Scientific analysis was
carried out in two stages to investigate
the effect of henna on paper in a lower
concentration than the advised ratio,
followed by laboratory work to
investigate the fungicidal properties of
henna dye in the advised concentration.
Our experiment showed that henna
acts as a fungicide on aspergillus flavus
only when the ratio of henna to water
is higher than 1:10. The present study
revealed the secret behind the henna
concentration that has been stressed in
historical recipes. |
