EDITORS COMMENTS
This print by Andrea Ricordi takes us on a journey to the ancient ruins of Pasargad archaeological site in Iran. The image showcases the remnants of a private palace, once part of the majestic capital city known as Pasargadae during the reign of Cyrus the Great, founder of the Achaemenid Empire. As we gaze at this remarkable scene, we are transported back in time to an era when this palace stood as a symbol of power and grandeur. It is awe-inspiring to think that it was here that Cyrus issued its construction over 2,500 years ago. This historical site also holds great significance as it serves as the final resting place for Cyrus himself. The composition beautifully captures both the majesty and decay present within these ancient walls. The play of light and shadows adds depth and mystery to the photograph, emphasizing its timeless allure. One cannot help but marvel at how nature has intertwined itself with history, reclaiming what was once man-made. Today, Pasargad archaeological site stands proudly as one of Iran's UNESCO World Heritage Sites – a testament to its rich cultural heritage and historical importance. Through Ricordi's lens, we are reminded not only of our shared human history but also our responsibility to preserve and appreciate these invaluable treasures from our past.
