Maral Rahmanzadeh

She was awarded the honorary title of People's Artist of the Azerbaijan SSR (1964),[1] and recipient of the State Prize.

Rahmanzadeh portrayed circumstances, landscape, architecture, and costumes in numerous illustrations for the novel “The land of fires”.

[clarification needed] During these years Maral Rahmanzadeh created illustrations for Jafar Jabbarly's "Maiden Tower" and "Gulzar" works.

On an exhibition, she presented drawings and watercolor paintings, portraying more typical episodes of the working life of oilmen on the Caspian Sea.

Rahmanzadeh is the eldest sister of sculptor and honoree of the Academy of Arts of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Vagif Rakhmanov.

She created a number of prints, portraying the characters from his plays "Sevil", "Almaz", and "Withered flowers."

Mirza Fatali Akhundov's historical play "Aldanmish Kevakib" ("Deceived stars") was published the same year and featured Rahmanzadeh's work.

She also illustrated translated publications, including "Eugene Onegin" by Alexander Pushkin and "A Hero of Our Time" by Mikhail Lermontov.

In another linocut, the artist depicted a new road in the mountains: a high-voltage power line and a highway against the backdrop of beautiful rocks.

In these linocuts, the artist portrayed landscapes of the village, mountains eternally covered with snow, steep cliffs, simple buildings, and residents in national costumes.

The National Museum of Art of Azerbaijan held an exhibition of Rahmanzadeh's paintings, lithographs, lino-prints, drawings and book illustrations in November 2016.
