Old World Iran: First Photographs of Tehran (incredible images from 1855 & the history erased)

Howdy. Today I’ve assembled for you the collection of the first photographs of Iran, as taken by Luigi Pesce during the 1850s, with our focus being on Tehran, the capital city of Iran. These images showcase something which is as profound as it is confusing; much of the ancient architecture of Iran (outside the major cities) appears to be more robust than what was found inside the cities during this time period. One great example is Persepolis. I have an incredible collection of the first photographs of that location in a separate video that is linked below. However, the history revolving around Tehran, and how it became the capital city is also quite unique and revealing. We can see very clear evidence of the history being purposefully erased by successive leaders, all of whom paved the way for a new narrative. The ancient architecture, at times, appears as old as the landscape itself. However, how far back can we trace the history of Tehran? How much of the current narrative can be trusted? What do you see in the first images? I believe the oldest photographs paint a picture that no mainstream scholar is willing to touch - an empire that had been greatly reduced, and was being “inherited” by new powers. History tends to be cyclical.
