EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the majestic beauty of the Buildings / 7 Wonders in Ephesus, Turkey. Built by the Greeks almost entirely from marble, these historical structures were a testament to ancient architectural prowess. The intricate fluted columns and grand steps speak to a time when craftsmanship was revered and attention to detail was paramount.
Sadly, this awe-inspiring temple dedicated to Artemis (Diana) met its demise at the hands of Herostratus in 356 BC. In an attempt to immortalize his name, he destroyed this marvel of history, leaving only remnants for future generations to ponder over.
The image depicts the sheer scale and grandeur of these buildings, showcasing their importance in Greek history. The women depicted on the friezes add a sense of life and vitality to what remains today as ruins.
As part of the world's wonders, these structures stand as a reminder of human ambition and creativity throughout history. Mary Evans Picture Library has captured this moment in time with precision and clarity, allowing viewers to transport themselves back thousands of years ago when these buildings stood tall and proud against the test of time.
