Résumé En

The Treasury reliefs and those of the northern gates of the 100 Column Hall at Persepolis show an audience scene with the Great King sitting in majesty. The image, celebrating the Achaemenid king, is an important testimony of the expression of the royal ideology. This study, part of an ongoing research, deals with the issue of the strength of diffusion of this ideology immediately beyond the borders of the empire, that is in the Classical Greece, trying to understand which were the channels of diffusion of the Achaemenid iconography and which was its degree of accessibility for the Greeks. In the paper we thus analyse the objects of the minor art bearing comparable iconographies and their context of use, considering jointly the written sources and the archaeological data with regards to both the Persian Empire and the Classical Greece.
