Summary
[edit]DescriptionParis - Louvre - Bull Capital from Susa Palace (6859255399).jpg |
An Achaemenid era Bull Capital from a supporting column of the apadana (great hall) Susa. It was part of the palace at Susa in ancient Persia. The palace was built for Persian King Darius I (reigned 522-486 B.C.). Susa is in present-day Iran. This is part of the Oriental Antiquities area of the Louvre museum in Paris. I visited this part of the Louvre in my last afternoon in Paris, after my mother and Aunt Marguerite had taken the boat train to Cherbourg on their return to the U.S. |
