EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient city of Eleusis, Greece. Standing proudly amidst the rugged landscape are the ruins of the Telestrion, a building shrouded in mystery and intrigue. It was within these walls that enigmatic rites were performed, rituals that have fascinated historians and archaeologists for centuries. The photograph captures the essence of this sacred site, showcasing its grandeur even in its dilapidated state. The crumbling stone walls bear witness to the passage of time, yet they still exude an air of mysticism and reverence. As we gaze upon this image, we cannot help but be drawn into a world long gone by. Dating back to approximately 6th-4th century BC, this artwork is not only a testament to ancient civilization but also a window into Europe's rich history. The intricate details preserved on each step of the stairway speak volumes about Roman artistry during that era. Alinari Fratelli has masterfully captured this momentous archaeological find through their lens. Their expertise shines through as they bring forth every nuance and texture present within these ruins. This print serves as both an educational tool for those interested in archaeology and a work of art that evokes emotions from viewers across generations. As we contemplate this remarkable piece, our imagination runs wild with thoughts about what transpired within these hallowed halls so many years ago. We are reminded once again of how much there is still left to discover about our past and how fortunate we are to have glimpses like these into ancient civilizations.
