Shah Khoda moskee in Soltaniyeh 1843 - 1854

Eugène Flandin's lithograph, "Shah Khoda moskee in Soltaniyeh," depicts a detailed view of a mosque in Iran, likely the Soltaniyeh Mausoleum. Created in 1843-1854, the artwork showcases Flandin's interest in the architecture and landscape of the Middle East. The lithograph captures the intricate details of the mosque's dome and minaret, while the surrounding landscape adds a sense of depth and context to the scene. Flandin's work is significant as a testament to the architectural wonders of Persia and showcases the artistic trends of the 19th century, which saw a growing interest in Orientalism and the documentation of foreign cultures.
