EDITORS COMMENTS
This print transports us back in time to the ancient city of Athens, Greece. The image showcases the majestic Parthenon from a unique perspective - its back view. Standing tall on the Acropolis, this iconic temple is a testament to classical Greek art and architecture. The photograph was taken around 1867, allowing us to glimpse into the past and witness this magnificent structure in all its glory. Built between 447-438 BC by renowned artists Fidia, Ictino, and Kallikrates, the Parthenon represents an era of unparalleled artistic achievement. As we admire this historical masterpiece, we are reminded of the rich heritage that Greece holds within its borders. The ruins surrounding the Parthenon serve as reminders of an ancient civilization that thrived here centuries ago. The composition captures not only the grandeur of the building but also highlights various architectural elements such as columns, metopes, and entablatures. These intricate details showcase meticulous craftsmanship that has withstood the test of time. Intriguingly, amidst this backdrop of awe-inspiring architecture stands a group of individuals dressed in traditional clothing. Their presence adds a human touch to this otherwise monumental scene - reminding us that behind every great work lies a community whose lives were shaped by it. James Robertson's skillful photography allows us to appreciate both the physical beauty and cultural significance embodied by this remarkable site. This print from Alinari serves as a timeless reminder of our connection to history and our collective responsibility to preserve these treasures for future generations.
