As it is very well documented, Iran boasts of quite a rich culture and heritage which has given rise to several buildings that might look modest on the borders, but they are a palimpsest to what the inside can be- stunning, and filled with ornamentation to the brim.

And his proficiency to his craft is noted as he captures the abstract designs, and the cut and snipped compositions, which are in a way tied to Iranian architecture, and Iranian history at the very roots.
