Item PY16

Dimensions: 48 x 24 cm.  This vintage print has some slight wear around the edges of the border due to age; this does not affect the actual image and will not be visible once the print is properly matted and framed.

The caption on the bottom of the print reads as follows:

The Gate of Xerxes at Persepolis

The palace of Xerxes at Persepolis, showing the Gate of All Nations. Beyond this an inner gateway leads to the Hall of a Hundred Columns where the king gave an audience. The building of Persepolis was begun by Darius c. 518-516 BC.
