The private frame

A photograph of a court is never only a face. It is fabric, distance, protocol, weather, and the second before someone speaks.

This collection treats images as primary documents. Captions name who is present, when the frame was made, and what the moment was for. The rest is left to the viewer.

Mohammad Reza Shah and Farah Pahlavi appear often together here — coronation light, airport thresholds, northern visits, private gardens. The aim is precision, not nostalgia.
