Saed News: These photos from the Qajar era—now over a hundred years old—can be viewed time and again, each time revealing something new: from the details of clothing and faces to many other elements that have undergone significant changes over the past century.
A photo taken during the reign of Naser al-Din Shah from the top of a newly built mansion belonging to one of Tehran’s wealthy residents, showing a view of northeast Tehran—a dreamlike landscape reminiscent of old tales: several farmlands, a solitary tree, a stream flowing at its base, and a lush panorama of gardens stretching to the foot of the mountains.
A photo taken in 1906 (1285 in the Iranian calendar) of the Tomb of Cyrus. In the image, a small shrub can be seen growing from one of the roof’s cavities or indentations.
Another photo taken a few years later of the Tomb of Cyrus shows the shrub’s further growth.
A photo taken by Ernst Herzfeld in the early 1920s (1300s in the Iranian calendar) of the tomb.
Another Qajar-era photo taken beside the Tomb of Cyrus. In this image, a small stone staircase can also be seen at the base of the tomb.
