EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Winged symbol of Ahura Mazda, a revered deity worshipped by the Zoroastrians. The image takes us back to ancient times, specifically to the Royal Audience Hall of Darius in Persepolis around 500 BC. This hall served as a significant gathering place for Persian civilization and was adorned with intricate symbols representing their religious beliefs. The winged symbol of Ahura Mazda stands tall and majestic, commanding attention and reverence from all who enter this sacred space. As one gazes upon it, they are transported into a world where gods were worshipped with utmost devotion and respect. Zoroastrianism, the religion practiced by these ancient Persians, held Ahura Mazda as their supreme god. This winged representation is believed to embody his divine presence and power. Its wings spread wide signify protection and guidance bestowed upon believers. Persepolis itself was an architectural marvel that showcased the grandeur of Persian civilization during its peak. The Royal Audience Hall was a testament to their advanced engineering skills and artistic prowess. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a reminder of our rich historical heritage. It allows us to appreciate the deep spiritual connection that existed between humans and deities in ancient civilizations like Persia's Zoroastrians' worship of Ahura Mazda through symbolism such as this magnificent winged figure.
