EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene of Greek brigands and shepherds, united as accomplices in the rugged mountains. The drawing, skillfully created by E. Ronjat, was intended to illustrate the enthralling story of Henri Belle's Journey to Greece during the years 1861,1868, and 1874. In this engraving featured in Le tour du monde magazine directed by Edouard Charton in Paris back in 1877, we witness a snapshot of ancient civilization and traditional Greek costume. The image portrays a group of men proudly displaying their heritage while donning traditional attire. One cannot help but be drawn to their strong presence and unwavering gaze. The composition offers an intriguing observation into the lives of these individuals who have formed an unlikely friendship amidst their mountainous surroundings. Their camaraderie is evident as they stand together with guns at hand - symbols both of protection against malefactors and tools for survival. This print from Leonard de Selva's private collection beautifully encapsulates the essence of Greek tradition and culture from the late nineteenth century. It serves as a reminder that even within challenging circumstances, human connection can thrive.
