ABOUT THE ARTIST ...
Is there really an artist called "Sara Moon"?
Yes, the artist who paints as'Sara Moon' is actually an Iranian born, German National male by the name of Bijan Djamalzadeh. Read the story at this Web site, here
Why do I see Bijan's name spelled Bidjan sometimes?
Many, many years ago, when Bijan applied to become a German National, the authorities spelled his name Bidjan on his papers. The name is commonly spelled both ways, like John and Jon. So, although 'officially' he is Bidjan, his preference is his true birth name, Bijan. Some documentation you see dates back before Bijan's preference was known.
Are Sara Moon and Christine Rosamond the same artist?
No. The late Christine Rosamond was an artist in her own right and her website can be found here
Do any other artists sign art as "Sara Moon"?
One other artist (Christian) did sign as Sara Moon for a while - but not for long. Bijan's first publisher, Red Baron, continued to use the name 'Sara Moon' for a short time after Bijan moved to another publishing house. The full story is here And all those artworks I am aware of, that were painted by Christian are shown here
Is this the same Sara Moon that is famous for female form photography?
No, that Sarah Moon is spelled with an H. She can be contacted by emailing Renate Gallois Montbrun here
