This print showcases the remarkable Bistun inscription, located in the Kermanshah Province of Iran. The name "Bistun" translates to "the gods place or land" and this UNESCO World Heritage Site has rightfully earned its prestigious title. In this horizontal, color image captured by Ali Majdfar, we are transported to Sahneh, where Mount Behistun majestically stands as a backdrop. With no people present in the frame, we can fully appreciate the intricacies of this ancient carving craft product that holds immense historical significance. As our eyes wander across the photograph, we are reminded of the rich cultural heritage and deep-rooted Iranian traditions that have shaped this region for centuries. This famous place serves as an international landmark, attracting travelers from all corners of the globe who seek to immerse themselves in its timeless beauty. The low angle view adds a sense of grandeur and reverence to Darius I's human representation within the inscription. As one gazes upon it, they cannot help but marvel at how Zoroastrianism and other ancient civilizations have left their indelible mark on these sacred grounds. Photography becomes a medium through which we can explore distant lands and connect with our shared past. Through Ali Majdfar's lens, he beautifully captures not just an image but also a testament to human history—an invitation for us all to delve into Iran's fascinating ancient civilization.
