EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the exquisite Vase of Alienor, a remarkable treasure from the Sassanid Period in the 6th or 7th century. The vase is beautifully adorned with crystal, gold, and precious stones, creating an aura of opulence and grandeur. The setting of this magnificent artifact was done in France during the 12th century, adding another layer of historical significance to its already rich story. Its intricate filigree mount further enhances its beauty, showcasing the skilled craftsmanship of Persian artisans. Originally given to Eleanor d'Aquitaine's grandfather, this extraordinary piece eventually found its way into the possession of Louis VII before being commissioned by Suger, Abbot of Saint-Denis (1122-51), who oversaw its stunning setting. Now housed at Louvre Museum in Paris, France, this photograph allows us to appreciate every delicate detail and shimmering gemstone that adorns this ancient vessel. It serves as a testament to both Eastern artistry and Western appreciation for fine craftsmanship. As we gaze upon this image captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are transported back through time to witness the splendor that once graced royal courts centuries ago. This Vase of Alienor stands as a symbol not only of artistic excellence but also as a tangible link connecting different cultures across history.
