Overall the production of these superb manuscripts, and the continued artistic interests of Safavid family members, helped to generate a taste for the pictorial and calligraphic arts in the upper reaches of Safavid society during the sixteenth century. Later workshops in Shiraz and Khurasan helped to disseminate a cultural aesthetic that was shared by a broad range of the literate public: not just the political elite, but prosperous merchants and others who patronized or purchased illustrated Persian poetical classics, reinvigorating a Persianate cultural identity shared by the Persian-speaking elite in Mawarannahr and Mughal India.
