Parwīz tanāwulī va shir'hā-yi Īrān Persian 1396

Nature and its various manifestations, from plants to animals, have been incorporated into the reliefs and carvings of carpets and pottery to keep the unbreakable bond between man and the world around him alive for the sake of time. Over time, some of these manifestations have reached a level of importance that has been repeatedly repeated in other works. Examining these ancient works shows the importance of the lion's role. The lion is the king of beasts and a powerful animal, which has long been a favorite of Iran's brave men. The image of this animal is carved in Achaemenid art and the reliefs of Persepolis and Susa. It can also be seen in many Sasanian dishes and textiles. The image of a lion is also engraved on some of the Parthian and Sasanian seals. In the Islamic period, the role of the lion remained as a symbol of strength and courage and found a new function and became one of the traditional elements of the new religion.
