EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the timeless beauty of The Acropolis at Athens in the early morning light of 1913. Renowned artist Jules Guerin masterfully portrays this iconic tourist attraction, showcasing its architectural grandeur and historical significance. The majestic hilltop is adorned with ancient Greek columns and pillars, representing the rich heritage of Athens. As the sun rises over the horizon, casting a warm glow on the landscape, it illuminates not only the magnificent structures but also a group of horses and mules that dot the scene. These animals add a touch of life to this otherwise serene setting, reminding us of their crucial role in transportation during that era. The composition skillfully frames The Acropolis against a backdrop of rolling hills and distant mountains, emphasizing its prominence within its natural surroundings. This image transports us back to a time when Western Asia was known as "The Near East" evoking feelings of wanderlust and curiosity about this enchanting region. Through vibrant colors and impeccable attention to detail, Guerin's artwork invites viewers to immerse themselves in history while appreciating both nature's splendor and human ingenuity. It serves as a testament to how art can transcend time by capturing fleeting moments for generations to come.
