Art that takes on the 300!

Interestingly enough, artists of Persian descent who are not impressed with the way 300 depicts Persians have set up an online gallery with their own depictions of Persia and Persians. There are some nice paintings here and some nice photographs too. Here's an article about the site that includes an interview with its creator.

Whats interesting is that they are hoping to 'google-bomb' 300, trying to get enough people to link to the site so that people who search for 300 end up at this site, and, hopefully, get a slightly different view of history!
