The Royal Wedding of the last Emperor of Iran
TopFoto - the imagery of nearly everything


Fifty years ago, on December 21, 1959, a beautiful young architecture student, Farah Diba, married the Shahinshah – King of Kings - Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the last Emperor of Iran.

Today, Her Imperial Majesty Farah Pahlavi is
living in exile between Cairo, Paris and Washington.

Iran is always news – a defiant opposition movement, deep rifts within the ruling elite, escalating violence.  TopFoto is the exclusive representative of the Imperial Iranian Archive and our current gallery illustrates a gentler moment in Iran’s turbulent history.
