The Dazzling Beauty of Elizabeth Taylor in Iran

In 1976, actress Elizabeth Taylor and then-aspiring photographer Firooz Zahedi journeyed across the world to Tehran. They dined with royalty, toured ancient sites, shopped in the Grand Bazaar, and perhaps most importantly, took a series of photographs that offer beautiful glimpses of Iran before the revolution and provide an intimate portrait of a 20th-century film icon. Though never intended for public view, Andy Warhol published the photos in Interview magazine shortly after Zahedi and Taylor returned from Iran, and in 2012 they were exhibited at LACMA. Zahedi and Taylor remained close friends and he continued to photograph her throughout the rest of her life. In this episode of Expert Voices, Firooz Zahedi shares the stories behind the captivating images of Elizabeth Taylor in Iran and describes how this remarkable experience influenced his now decades-long career as a celebrated photographer. Sotheby’s will offer one of these magnificent photographs, Elizabeth Taylor Dressed as an Odalisque II, in our 20th Century Art / Middle East sale. (30 April | London)

In late 1977 when I was 12 years old I flew on that flight. I will never forget the feel of it. We flew almost a mile higher than any other airline flew at the time. A lot less turbulence at that hight. Not very fuel efficient, but Iran Air was more interested in the comfort of its customers than saving a few bucks. Iran then was a different world than it is now.

Elizabeth Taylor was and still is the most beautiful lady I have ever seen in my life. Elizabeth didn't need surgery or other forms of plastic to make her look good; she had beauty in abundance. Something I recently found out, Elizabeth Taylor had double eyelashes; it is a condition by which a person develops a greater than normal number of eyelashes. Some people like Elizabeth Taylor are born with a second row of eyelashes due to a genetic mutation called distichiasis. I would have given anything to have met her.

[@hamrunizspar1]

Angela Bender. ~Elizabeth Taylor was pretty. With makeup applied by experts she looked out of this world. And strictly speaking, at the end of the day(literally, but not necessarily)the purpose of that beauty in a woman is to be enjoyed by the man. As in touching, the rough and tumble that is sex. And things don't have to get too raunchy and hot - makeup is very fragile. Like a painting in soft pastel, it is easily smudged. So let's get real! kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWfSnWSPfb5mY9U But pastel paintings can be fixed with a fixative. Alas, makeup as applied to the face cannot be fixed.

Rupert Rosells There is no doubt that Elizabeth Taylor was a good-looking woman. Beautiful eyes with beautiful make-up applied by a beautician will, of course, look dazzling. I wonder what Liz's eyes would look like washed clean of what is, in the end, coloured muck? Still beautiful no doubt, but............

[@hamrunizspar1]

steve gale red eyes = booze(?) because of stress. Yellow eyes look jaundiced. Even Elizabeth Taylor was not immune(in fact her health was known to be fragile at best). Having and living with labels such as 'the most beautiful face in the world' may sound wonderful but it is also a great responsibility. Being set up as desirable sexually is quite a burden. Very beautiful women - in Hollywood especially - are two a penny. Never having to bother about housework much creates its own problems. So are multiple marriages symptomatic. And if all this does not affect the personality, I do not know what does.

[@hamrunizspar1]

Steve gale. As I said, exceptional beauty brings it's own problems. Beauty without the brain matter that sustains our mental stamina isn't worth much. Ms. Taylor did some good work(but her voice was a bit whingey, like a little girl wanting attention). Hollywood manipulates and without knowing it, the manipulated collude with the system. Then age starts to set in. It's all tinsel-town stuff and sleeping at The Dorchester when not in LA. Big deal!

Almost all the highest paid models and most beautiful actresses of today are compared to her (Barbara Palvin, Taylor Hill, Isabeli Fontana, Cara Delevigne, Natalia Vodanova, Lily Collins, Emilla Clarke, Natalie Portman, Kristina Pimenova and many more!).
