EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th century view of the bustling market or bazaar in Athens, Greece, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural tapestry of the city during that era. The image, copied from Edward Dodwell's "Views in Greece," was hand-coloured and engraved by Sasso for Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence in 1847. The scene is a vibrant tableau of activity, with Greek, Turkish, and Albanian men engaging in lively bartering and smoking hookah pipes, their attire reflecting the diverse influences that shaped the region. Women, dressed in traditional garb, are setting out their stalls along the roadside, displaying an array of goods for sale. The market's energy and dynamism are palpable, creating a sense of community and commerce. In the background, the iconic Acropolis stands proudly, its ancient ruins a testament to the city's storied past. The juxtaposition of the modern market scene with the timeless beauty of the Acropolis underscores the enduring history and resilience of Athens. This intricately detailed handcoloured copperplate engraving offers a fascinating window into the past, providing a visual record of a bygone era and offering insights into the daily life and diversity of the people of Athens during the 18th century.
