Groot gebouw met vijver, Perzië c. 1925

This black and white photograph, taken by A.G.A. van Eelde in Persia circa 1925, captures the grandeur of a traditional Persian building. The structure, possibly a palace or a mosque, boasts a large, open courtyard with a reflecting pool and a grand entrance. The building’s architectural features, including ornate arches, columns and a tiled roof, are characteristic of Persian architecture. The photograph's focus on the building and the surrounding landscape highlights van Eelde's interest in capturing the cultural and architectural heritage of Persia.
