EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Notes of Greek Travel, Olympia" takes us back to ancient Greece, immersing us in the rich history and architectural wonders of this remarkable civilization. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases a recumbent figure amidst the ruins of Olympia. The image transports us to the Temple of Hera and Temple of Zeus, two iconic structures that stand as testaments to the grandeur and skill of ancient Greek architects. The intricate details captured in this print allow us to marvel at the craftsmanship that went into constructing these magnificent temples. As we explore further, our gaze is drawn towards a head resting on a pedestal nearby. This archaeological find adds another layer of intrigue and mystery to our journey through time. The composition also highlights the western pediment with its stunning sculptures depicting scenes from Greek mythology. We catch glimpses of Hermes, one of their revered gods, reminding us of their deep religious beliefs and cultural significance. With each element carefully depicted in this print – from notes scribbled alongside the image to emphasize its historical context – we are reminded not only of Greece's ancientness but also its enduring influence on art and culture worldwide. Bridgeman Images has once again captured a moment frozen in time through this exceptional artwork found within their Fine Art Finder collection.
