Description
In the third and final installment of multiple episodes focusing on the Parthenon Frieze and its relationship with the Persian Apadana reliefs at Persepolis, we take a quick look at the history and context of the Ionic frieze, investigating its evolution from a decorative band to storyboard. We'll wrap up with a close examination of the many similarities between the Parthenon Frieze and Apadana reliefs, the Parthenon and Apadana themselves, the Acropolis and Persepolis, and finally Athens and the Persian Empire.
