This photo was taken by Roberto Villa, on the set in Isfahan, of Pier Paolo Pasolini’s movie ‘The Flower of the One Thousand and One Nights’. It wisely captures the essence of the Italian intellectual’s attachment to Iran, a country he considered extremely attractive in its artistic and monumental heritage, rich in history, and genuinely hospitable to its guests.
Part of an exhibit that the Italian Embassy in Tehran organized together with the Pejman Foundation in Tehran at Argo Factory in 2022, this portrait’s background is a testimony to the values of cultural exchanges between Italy
and Iran.
