EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an exquisite bronze arrowhead dating back to the 3rd-7th century. Created by the skilled artisans of the Sasanian School, this small yet powerful artifact measures 1.3x4.7 cm and currently resides in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, USA. Originating from Iran, specifically Qasr-i Abu Nasr, this arrowhead represents a fascinating piece of Iranian history and culture. Its intricate design reflects the mastery of metalwork during the Sassanian era, known for its rich decorative arts. The arrowhead's ornate decoration adds a touch of elegance to its functional purpose as a weapon. With its sharp edges and precise craftsmanship, it serves as a reminder of ancient warfare techniques employed by Persian warriors. As we admire this archaeological treasure, we are transported back in time to witness Persia's glorious past unfold before our eyes. This remarkable object not only symbolizes strength and resilience but also highlights Iran's significant contributions to art and technology throughout history. Through this photograph captured by Bridgeman Images, we can appreciate both the beauty and historical significance encapsulated within this modest yet extraordinary bronze arrowhead from ancient Persia.
