EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the epic battle between Ahura Mazda and Angra Mainyu, beautifully captured in a colorful lithograph. The scene is a copy of a frieze from Persepolis, created by the French School in the 19th century and now housed at Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France. In this awe-inspiring image, we witness the triumph of Ahura Mazda, the god of wisdom, over Angra Mainyu, the evil spirit. With divine power emanating from his being, Ahura Mazda stands tall and resolute as he confronts his formidable adversary. Armed with a lance or spear held firmly in his hand, he fearlessly faces off against Angra Mainyu. The defeated serpent-like creature writhes beneath Ahura Mazda's feet - symbolizing not only victory but also the vanquishing of evil itself. This depiction represents an important aspect of Zoroastrianism, an ancient religion founded by Zarathustra (Zoroaster). It portrays the eternal struggle between good and evil that lies at its core. The intricate details and vibrant colors bring this ancient mythological battle to life once more. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork by Bridgeman Images through Fine Art Finder's lens, we are reminded of humanity's enduring fascination with divinity and our eternal quest for spiritual enlightenment.
