Mohsen Keiany (Kiani), “Old Man and Goats” – Early Mixed‑Media on Paper, Signed, Framed
Mohsen Keiany (Kiani), “Old Man and Goats” – Early Mixed‑Media on Paper, Signed, Framed
Evocative and richly textured, this original mixed‑media painting *Old Man and Goats* is an authenticated early work by Iranian‑born artist Mohsen Keiany (also known as Mohsen Kiani).
Keiany is known for weaving memories of rural Iran into a bold, expressionist style. Here an elderly robed figure stands among his goats, rendered in sweeping, energetic strokes of pink, ochre and charcoal grey. The result is a powerful image that sits somewhere between figurative storytelling and abstraction, full of movement and atmosphere.
Painted in mixed media on paper and signed lower right with the artist’s characteristic emblem and script, the work has been confirmed by Keiany as an early piece. It is presented in a simple light‑wood frame with a wide off‑white mount, ready to hang.
A striking addition to any collection of Middle Eastern, modern or figurative art, and an opportunity to acquire an original, authenticated work by a distinctive contemporary artist.
Presented in Original gallery frame with gallery label to back, also a leaflet from the Birmingham One World Week Exhibition (Oct 2001) where the piece was purchased.

Keiany’s practice blends expressive, graphic line with layered color, often featuring pastoral animals and elder figures—motifs tied to Iranian rural life and storytelling. Early works are scarcer on the open market and appeal to collectors of modern Middle Eastern art.
