Muhmammad Muhsin was one of the leading artists of the first generation after Reza-i Abbasi, together with Muhammad Yusuf, Muhammad Ali and Muhammad Qasim. Signed works of his are rare. Many of those that are known depict dervishes with meticulously drawn faces and calligraphic robes and turbans, with solitary trees behind them.
Two works signed in the same manner as the present lot are in the National Museum of Asian Art, Washington D.C. (F1912.99 and F1947.23). Others are in the David Collection, Copenhagen (145 / 2006) and Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg (VP-734). Another similar portrait of a dervish holding a book by Muhammad Muhsin was sold in Sotheby's London, 27 October 2021, lot 136. A drawing resembling the style of Muhsin but made slightly later was sold in these Rooms, 8 October 2015, lot 36.
