Parisa Damandan

Parisa Damandan, or Parīsā Damandān Nafīsī̄ (born  1967, Esfahān, Iran) is an Iranian  photographer and art  historian. She is the author of Portrait photographs from Isfahan: Faces in transition, 1920-1950, a book illustrating the history of Isfahan in the early 20th century with portrait photographs, which she collected over a period of ten years; the photographs were hard to find because many photo archives in Isfahan had been burned after the enactment of a 1979 law forbidding depictions of unveiled women.
