EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled " (13) [Persepolis], 1840s-60s" takes us on a journey back in time to the ancient city of Persepolis. Created by Luigi Pesce, an Italian photographer from the 19th century, this albumen silver print captures the grandeur and beauty of this archaeological site. The image showcases the ruins of Persepolis, once a thriving capital of the Achaemenid Empire in Iran. The intricate stone buildings stand as a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Persia. With its detailed composition and expert use of light and shadow, Pesce's photograph brings out every fine detail of these majestic structures. As we gaze upon this photograph, we are transported to a different era - one where empires rose and fell, leaving behind remnants that continue to fascinate archaeologists and historians alike. The image not only highlights the architectural brilliance but also evokes a sense of awe for those who appreciate ancient civilizations. Preserved within the collection at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this remarkable piece by Luigi Pesce serves as both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable historical document. It reminds us that even in ruins lies great beauty waiting to be discovered by those who seek it.
