Achaemenid art
Ancient Iranian art under the Achaemenid Empire. The magnificent ruins of Persepolis are a representative example. It consists of a large platform and a colonnade, and the walls are decorated with realistic and powerful stone reliefs of divine beasts and humans. In terms of crafts, there are excellent gold and silverware, and traditional animal designs are used as the theme. Major remains that remain today include the ruins of Pasargadae and Susa, the tomb of Cyrus II, the ruins of Naqsh-e-Rostam, and the victory monument of Darius I at Bishtun (Behistun).
