EDITORS COMMENTS
This aerial view captures the town of Susa, restored by the Achaemenids after its devastating destruction by the Assyrians in 640 BC. The image showcases the remarkable resilience and architectural prowess of the Achaemenid civilization, which flourished between 550-330 BC. Located in present-day Iran, Susa was once a thriving capital of the Elamite kingdom. This historical significance is evident in its grandeur and strategic layout depicted in this print. The stone ramparts encircling the town serve as a testament to its defensive capabilities, while numerous towers stand tall as guardians of this administrative center. The Iranian landscape surrounding Susa adds an enchanting backdrop to this scene. From bastions to forts, every structure within these walls tells a story of strength and endurance. Each dwelling within these protective walls provided housing and accommodation for those who called Susa home. This awe-inspiring photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to rebuild even after facing adversity. It stands as an artistic representation that transcends commercial use or profit-seeking intentions. Courtesy of Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, viewers are granted access to appreciate this masterpiece without any copyright restrictions hindering their exploration into ancient history and architectural marvels from centuries past.
