This piece depicts the Hasanlu lovers, a pair of human remains found at the Hasanlu archaeological site in Iran. In around 800 BCE the city was destroyed by an unknown invader. Inhabitants were slain and left where they fell. These lovers were discovered by a team of archaeologists in 1973. Archaeological evidence suggests the two skeletons are male.
