Journey through five millennia of art, history, and innovation in one of the world's most influential civilizations. Epic Iran: 5000 Years of Culture is the definitive companion to the landmark exhibition at the Victoria and Albert Museum, offering an unparalleled exploration of Iran's rich cultural heritage. This visually stunning volume brings together masterpieces of art and design-from ancient artifacts and illuminated manuscripts to textiles, ceramics, and contemporary works. Perfect for art lovers, historians, and anyone fascinated by the beauty and complexity of Persian civilization, this book is both a scholarly resource and a visual feast. Iran was the home of some of the greatest civilizations of both the ancient and medieval worlds, but these achievements remain poorly known and largely misunderstood outside the country. Epic Iran tells the story of Iran from pre-Islamic through modern times and provides an opportunity to see pieces from key museum and private collections. This book combines the ancient and Islamic periods and continues the narrative into the contemporary world. It shows how civilized life emerged in Iran around 3,200 BC and how a distinctive Iranian identity formed 2,500 years ago has survived until today, expressed in the Persian language and in religious affiliations. Lavishly illustrated, some 250 images showcase pieces including goldwork, ceramics, glass, illustrated manuscripts, textiles, carpets, oil paintings, drawings, and photographs. Alongside the historical sweep are examples from contemporary artists and makers, demonstrating the rich antecedents still influencing some modern-day practitioners. Epic Iran is a stunning introduction to the material culture of some of the great civilizations of Asia, curated by John Curtis, Ina Sarikhani Sandmann, and Tim Stanley.
John Curtis is academic director of the Iran Heritage Foundation and former keeper of the Middle East Department at the British Museum. Ina Sarikhani Sandmann is cofounder of the Sarikhani Collection. Tim Stanley is senior curator in the Asian Department at the V&A.
