EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the pair of magnificent Winged Bulls at the Hall of All the Nations in Persepolis, Iran, circa 1920s. Persepolis, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is an ancient city located in the Marvdasht region of Fars Province in Iran. The city is renowned for its impressive ruins, which showcase the rich history and cultural heritage of the Persian Empire. The Hall of All the Nations, also known as the Apadana Palace, is a grand structure that was once used for public receptions and royal ceremonies. The intricately carved stone reliefs on the walls of the Hall depict various nations and their rulers who paid tribute to the Persian king. The pair of Winged Bulls, each with a human head and the body of a bull, are a common motif in Persian art and architecture. These mythical creatures were believed to represent strength and power, and were often used as guardians of sacred places. The bulls' wings are outstretched, suggesting that they are ready to take flight and protect the Hall and its inhabitants. The lantern-like structures on the bulls' backs are thought to represent the sun, symbolizing the eternal power and endurance of the Persian Empire. The ruins of the Hall, with its columns and pillars, stand tall against the backdrop of the rugged terrain, a testament to the grandeur and magnificence of ancient Persia. This photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the rich history and cultural heritage of the Middle East during the 1920s. It is a reminder of the enduring legacy of the Persian Empire and the importance of preserving and celebrating our ancient history.
