EDITORS COMMENTS
This color engraving from the late 19th century offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the grandeur of the Theatre of Dionysus in Athens. The reconstruction showcases an exquisite scene, transporting us back to ancient Greece. To the left, we can marvel at part of the enclosing colonnade that looms above the spectators' seats, evoking a sense of awe and reverence. In the foreground lies the orchestra, with its centerpiece being the thymele - an altar dedicated to Dionysus, god of wine and theater. This sacred space sets the stage for enchanting performances and rituals that once captivated audiences centuries ago. Beyond this hallowed ground stands a magnificent proscenium, serving as a gateway between reality and imagination. It beckons us towards what lies beyond - a sprawling stage adorned with buildings that exude architectural splendor. As we gaze upon this scenic view captured by The Granger Collection's artistry, we cannot help but be transported to an era where music filled these ancient halls and choruses brought stories to life. The Greek Theatre becomes more than just bricks and mortar; it symbolizes human creativity reaching celestial heights through theatrical expression.
