EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting image captures a romanticized view of the ancient ruins of Persepolis, the once grand capital city of the Achaemenid Empire in ancient Iran, as they appeared prior to extensive archaeological excavations in the early 20th century. The photograph, taken in 1823, offers a glimpse into the past, before the meticulous work of scholars and archaeologists, most notably the University of Chicago's Oriental Institute in the 1930s, began to uncover the hidden treasures and secrets of this UNESCO World Heritage Site. The ruins of Persepolis, located in modern-day Fars province in southern Iran, were the center of the Persian Empire's political power and ceremony. The city's impressive architecture, intricate reliefs, and monumental structures were designed to showcase the grandeur and might of the Persian kings. This image, with its lush greenery and serene atmosphere, invites us to imagine the splendor and majesty of Persepolis in its prime. As we admire the beauty of this photograph, it is essential to remember that it represents only a fraction of the story. The true essence of Persepolis lies beneath the surface, waiting to be discovered and understood through the tireless efforts of archaeologists and historians. This image serves as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Iran and the importance of preserving and studying our past.
