EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of ancient Persia, showcasing a remarkable cuneiform inscription at Persepolis. The intricate carvings, believed to be by Xerxes himself, adorn the Palace of Darius (Tachara), offering a glimpse into the rich Achaemenid civilization that thrived in the 6th and 5th centuries BC. Listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1979, Persepolis stands as a testament to Iran's glorious past. This image transports us back in time, allowing us to marvel at the grandeur of this historical gem nestled in Fars province. The vibrant colors and horizontal composition bring life to this ancient ruin against an Eastern backdrop. With no people present, we are left alone with our thoughts to contemplate the significance of communication and history etched onto these weathered stones. As we explore every detail captured by Alireza Firouzi's lens, we are reminded of Persian culture's profound influence on art and architecture. The bas-relief showcases not only masterful craftsmanship but also serves as a window into an era long gone. This photograph is more than just an image; it is a portal through which we can immerse ourselves in archaeology and unravel mysteries from another time. It invites us to embark on a journey through non-western scripts and uncover the secrets hidden within these ancient civilizations. Whether you are drawn by curiosity or have an affinity for travel destinations steeped in history, this photo
