EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the ancient and mysterious ruins of Persepolis in Iran. The focal point is a stone carved column adorned with an exquisite twin Simorgh bird, a mythical creature deeply rooted in Persian literature. Resembling a phoenix or griffin, this enchanting figure symbolizes rebirth and power. Dating back to 500 BC, these ruins were once part of the Achaemenid dynasty Zoroastrian empire's capital city known as Takhte Jamshid. Despite its grandeur, Persepolis suffered destruction at the hands of Alexander of Macedonia who burned it down. However, even in its partially ruined state, the site continues to exude an air of mystery and intrigue. This UNESCO World Heritage site near Marvdasht serves as a testament to Iran's rich history and architectural brilliance. The absence of vibrant colors in this vertical image enhances its timeless appeal while emphasizing the passage of time. As one gazes upon this photograph by German Vogel, they are transported into another era filled with tales from Persian culture and mythology. Persepolis remains a popular travel destination for those seeking to immerse themselves in ancient wonders. Its significance lies not only in its historical importance but also as a reminder that even great empires can fall victim to destruction – yet their legacy lives on through artistry captured within photographs like this one.
