Lajvard

One artwork a day from the great artistic traditions of the East

Lajvard means lapis lazuli, the deep blue you see in miniature paintings and Iznik tiles. Every morning the app brings you a single masterpiece, such as a miniature, an Ottoman tughra, a Mughal portrait, a Chinese landscape, or a Japanese print. Each work comes with its story and a guided Look Closer tour that walks your eye through details a museum label never has room for.

There is no feed here, no ads, and no endless scrolling. You get one beautiful thing a day and the time to really look at it.

TODAY A new artwork every morning, chosen from museum open access collections, together with its story, its maker, and its world

LOOK CLOSER A guided tour through the details of each painting, from hidden signatures to borrowed motifs and brushwork you would walk right past in a gallery
