EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving showcases the base of a column in the great palace of Susa, an ancient city in Persia. The fragments brought home by Dieulafoy, a renowned archaeologist, were used to reconstruct this magnificent piece. Standing at approximately 1 meter and 50 centimeters tall, it now resides in the Louvre Museum. The intricate details of this column's base are beautifully depicted in this print. Every curve and pattern tells a story of the rich history and artistry that once thrived within these walls. It is a testament to the greatness of Persian civilization and their mastery of architectural design. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but be transported back in time to when Susa was at its peak. We imagine grand halls filled with opulent furnishings and adorned with stunning artwork. This engraving allows us to catch a glimpse into the past and marvel at what once stood here. Thanks to Perrot and Chipiez's meticulous work on their book "History of Art in Persia" we have access to such remarkable visuals that bring ancient civilizations back to life. Their dedication has allowed us all to appreciate the beauty that lies within these archaeological treasures. This print serves as a reminder that art not only reflects culture but also preserves it for future generations. It inspires us to delve deeper into history, uncovering hidden gems like this base of a column from Susa's great palace.
