Persian Pictures

Bok av Gertrude Bell
This brilliant, vivid and impressionistic series of sketches, formed during her 1892 stay in Persia, is Gertrude Bell's first published work. Infused with a distinctive orientalism, it is an evocative, virtuosic meditation, moving sinuously between Persia's heroic complex, mythical past and present decline.
