Marjane Satrapi (1969-2026)
🖤😓❤️‍🩹
“Marjane Satrapi died of grief just over a year after the death of Mattias Ripa, her husband and the love of her life”

She became known worldwide for her critically acclaimed autobiographical graphic novel “Perspolis”. It recounts the story of Satrapi’s early life in Tehran, struggling under the restrictions imposed by Iran’s Islamic leadership after the 1979 revolution - before she was sent to Europe by her parents to begin a life in exile.
