EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving takes us on a journey back in time to Ancient Greece, offering a glimpse into the rich history and culture of this remarkable civilization. The image showcases various aspects of life in ancient Athens, highlighting their religious practices, sporting events, and architectural marvels. In the foreground, we witness skilled fighters demonstrating their horsemanship as they mount and dismount with ease. Dressed in elaborate costumes, these equestrians showcase their prowess while educating spectators about Greek athletics and boxing. Meanwhile, horse-drawn chariots race through the hippodrome amidst cheering crowds. The grandeur of the Acropolis looms majestically in the background, adorned with iconic structures such as the Parthenon and its sacred temple dedicated to Athena. The architecture serves as a testament to Athenian ingenuity and artistic mastery. Amidst all this excitement lies an olive tree - symbolizing peace - reminding us that even amidst fierce competition and conflict depicted by boxers confronting each other or battling against one another; there is still room for harmony. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to immerse ourselves in Ancient Greece's vibrant past – a world where religion intertwined with sportsmanship, where artistry met athleticism, and where history was written within every stone column.
