EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fragment of a carving from Hasanlu, Iran, dating back to approximately 800 BC. The burnt ivory artwork depicts a winged person, believed to be part of furniture decoration during that era. Preserved at the Bible Lands Museum in Jerusalem, Israel, this artifact offers a glimpse into the rich history and artistic traditions of the Persian School. The intricate details on this fragmentary piece are truly remarkable. Despite its broken state, one can still appreciate the craftsmanship and skill involved in creating such an exquisite figure. The wings extend gracefully from the person's back, adding an ethereal quality to their presence. This photograph captures not only the beauty of this ancient artwork but also its cultural significance within the Middle Eastern region. It serves as a reminder of Iran's historical connection to art and creativity throughout centuries. Thanks to Zev Radovan's expert photography skills, viewers can now admire this precious relic from Teppeh Hassanlu with clarity and detail. Bridgeman Images has once again provided us with an invaluable visual resource for exploring our world's artistic heritage.
