Mohammad Farahani (1937 – 2012), also known as Mohammad Darvish, was one of the most prominent second generation Iranian Coffeehouse painters. When he was thirteen years old,[1] he met Hossein Qollar-Aqasi, one of the founding fathers of the genre, at a coffeehouse in Tehran (Qahveh-khaneh Mehdi Siah) while accompanying his wandering dervish uncle. Realizing the young boy's talent, Hossein Qollar-Aqasi took him under his mentorship. Farahani produced oil paintings and églomisé works depicting scenes from the Shahnameh, The Battle of Karbala, among others.[2]
